Red White and Green Brussels Sprouts
By :HipPressureCooking
Brussels Sprouts end up tasting quite buttery when pressure steamed - the pomegranate seeds add a nice crunch and tang to this autumn salad.

    I usually hate brussel sprouts. In the past they always tasted bitter.
    I made without pomegranate seeds and used walnut oil instead of olive oil. Best I’ve ever had. I will try the pomegranate seeds next time. Yum!

    Skip this. Roast your Brussel Sprouts in your oven with a little pancetta and add balsamic at the end.

    I made it! Yes, the brussels sprouts fell through the steamer basket so i just put them right in the water. I think 2 minutes pressure cooking would be long enough, but i thought they were delicious!

    3 minutes seems too long. Came out too soft. I’ll try 2 minutes next time. Otherwise, it’s a great alternative to roasting the sprouts. The advantage of steaming is that, unlike in the oven, the sprouts don’t shrink.
