Method

  1. Place the sprouts in a large pan of boiling water and boil for 3-4 minutes until nearly tender. Drain and plunge into cold water to refresh, then drain again.
  2. Meanwhile, melt half the butter in a large frying pan over a medium heat, add the lemon zest, fresh breadcrumbs and parsley and toss until the breadcrumbs are toasted and lightly golden. Season, remove from the pan and set aside.
  3. When ready to serve, melt the remaining butter in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Put the sprouts in the frying pan and warm through over a low heat. Tip into a bowl, then scatter with the crumbs.
