Product Information

We think of sprouts as a Christmas dish but there are over 100 varieties which come into season at varying points through the late summer through until spring. Heat some oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Put halved sprouts in, cut-side down, leave to sizzle for 5-10 mins, lifting them up every few mins to see how brown they are, then dot with butter, turn them over and cook for about 10 mins more until they are tinged dark brown all over. Season and scatter over some sesame seeds or flaked almonds if you like. Steak Bites– We eat a lot of steak, so I figured why not give the air fryer a try! Unfortunately, it’s hard to get that delicious charred edge, and super easy to overcook them. A grill or cast iron skillet is so much better. They should have a pale base and darker leaves – any yellowing or browning will mean they’re getting old. Also, if they look as if the leaves have started to open out, they have probably been harvested late. Raw sprouts can be frozen when shredded or thinly sliced, spread them out on a tray to freeze and then tip them into a bag or container and they’ll defrost almost instantly so you can tip them straight into a frying pan.

Fry sliced sprouts (pre-cooked if you like) in a little butter until they start to brown, then add mashed potato, season and mix. Press the mixture down in the pan and brown the base. Turn over in patches and keep browning wherever needed. There are plenty of other ways to cook brussels sprouts other than boiling. See our list of cooking methods below, including roasting, steaming, pan-frying and plenty more.Prepare your sprouts and dry them thoroughly. Fill a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan no more than a third full with oil and heat until it reads 190C on a thermometer or a piece of bread browns in the oil within 15 secs. Carefully lower in the sprouts and fry for 3 mins until deep golden brown. Drain on kitchen paper, then scatter with sea salt. EASY-PEASY GAMEPLAY : Just strap on a tail, warm up those thighs, spin the spinner, and win some bananas! Easy … or is it? Gameplay is super straight-forward to follow (great for monkeys with short attention spans) but hard to master, making it the perfect addition to your board and card game collection. 2+ PLAYERS | 6+ YEARS If you do freeze cooked sprouts, use them in bubble & squeak and other hash-style dishes, or cut them up, stir them into some cream and bake. Kale– It actually turned out delicious, but leafy greens tend to fly around in an air fryer so you have to constantly babysit them and mix every minute or so. I had a few pieces fly up into the heating element and start to smoke!

You don’t need to peel sprouts when you are cooking them, remove any discoloured leaves if there are some, otherwise leave them be and trim the bases. Air fry leftovers anywhere from 350° to 400° depending on how crispy you like things, keeping the size of the food in mind. Larger things like pizza could stand a lower temp to ensure it heats all the way through without getting too crisp on the edges. Ingredients that can be added to cooked sprouts include flaked or chopped almonds, chopped hazel nuts and of course chestnuts. Brown the nuts in a little butter before adding the freshly cooked sprouts. Give your sprouts a spiced edge with garam masala or ras el hanout, or add some chopped chilli and garlic, again cook the spices or flavourings for a few seconds in butter or oil before adding the hot sprouts. Toss them together. You'll find plenty more flavour ideas in our main collection of brussels sprouts recipes. Roast sprouts at 200C/180C fan/gas 6 for 30 mins. Pour over some cheese sauce, scatter with dried breadcrumbs (and some bacon if you like) and bake for 10 mins. Wrap your measuring tape around the fullest part of your child’s chest, keeping the tape close under their arms.

Roasted sprouts You can cook your sprouts ahead and reheat them in the microwave if you are short on hob space. Or you can cook halved or quartered sprouts ahead and warm them gently with some butter in a pan.

If you buy sprouts on a stalk, twist them off firmly starting at the base and working upwards just before cooking, or roast them on the stalk. AS SEEN ON BBC, ITV, NBC, FOX, and ABC : Celebs love It’s Bananas too! Ryan Seacrest and Vanessa Lachey ended up in hysterics while playing it on ABC’s LIVE WITH KELLY AND RYAN during their ‘hot new games for the summer’ section, and in the U.K. it was one of ITV THIS MORNING’s Must Have Holiday Board Games with Philip Schofield and Holly Willybough.Measure where the collar of your child’s shirt would naturally sit. Always allow a little room in case of a growth spurt! Cooked sprouts are best frozen when cut into pieces or sliced first. Freeze them in a flat layer if you can, then tip them into a big so you can take as many as you like out at a time. Whole sprouts can be frozen in the same way.

SUITABLE for KIDS & ADULTS -- This set of reindeer antler toss game approx size is 35 inches, and the Inner Size is 5.5 inches. The hat also designed with two (38cm/ 15in) chin straps help to fix different head sizes, enough long to work for adults or kids. Halve, quarter or shred sprouts to minimise the cooking time. If the sprouts are larger than average and you want them to remain whole, you can of course cook them for longer. They will probably need 7-8 minutes to cook through. Among the most popular are Abacus (ready in August and September) and Cryptus (these are like mini cabbages with frilly outer leaves, ready in December), plus dark green Petrus and Splendus that continue going strong into April.

Fry a finely chopped onion in butter until tender, stir in the sprouts and add some cream and a grating of nutmeg and heat together until bubbling. RawNo more soggy leftovers! You can reheat anything that’s meant to be crispy in your air fryer. That includes anything fried, as well as some other foods including pizza, veggies, garlic bread, hot dogs, etc. If you end up with a load of leftover sprouts, you can freeze them, but bear in mind the texture will not benefit from being frozen. Cabbage– We love roasting cabbage in the oven! It turns out yummy in the air fryer too, however, it’s difficult to fit an entire head in there, and you have to toss every few minutes, so you can’t just “set it and forget it” like in the oven. It’s amazing for leftover cabbage, though! Broccoli – Don’t get me wrong, broccoli is great in an air fryer, but I prefer it in the oven. All the little beads on the ends burn very easily (especially broccolini), so sometimes you have to pull it out before it’s soft enough. If you do make it in the air fryer, I recommend placing a few tablespoons of water under the crisper plate. Toss sprouts in a little oil and tip into a baking dish with bacon lardons (or wrap each in pancetta first). Roast at 200C/180C fan/gas 6 for 20-30 minutes, or until tender.
