Ingredients for 4 servings
- 500 g of small green Brussels sprouts, well-formed
- 100 g of Chorizo de Pata Négra de Belota* (if you can find it) cut into thin slices
- 40 g of half-salted butter
- fine salt and freshly ground pepper.
1- Peel your Brussels sprouts by removing the first skin and cutting off the stem.
2- Cook by steaming or in a large quantity of salted water. Test the cooking with a small knife which should penetrate easily.
3- In a pan, heat your butter then lay out your chorizo slices for 2 minutes on each side, then remove them to a plate.
4- In this pan where the aroma and chorizo-infused butter still linger, place your Brussels sprouts and sauté them on all sides, salt (lightly) and grind pepper over them, then turn off the heat.
5- With a small knife, make a slit on each Brussels sprout and insert a small chorizo wafer, then cover with a lid.
6 When ready to serve, turn on the heat under the pan for 2 minutes, then stick a small pick on each and serve very hot.
I want to thank my friend Alejandro Alvarez "La Ibérique" for introducing me to this unique product that is Chorizo de Belota (Spanish black pork)
