Who would have thought? My least favorite veggie is Brussel sprouts. Yet it is my favorite item on Chef Tommy Klauber’s menu at PG’s on Longboat Key, Fl.

Hashed Brussel Sprouts
Ingredients:
2 oz olive oil
1 tbsp roasted garlic puree
1 oz Brussels sprouts, shredded
2 oz butter
1 tsp poppy seeds (the secret ingredient)
Pepper and Kosher or sea salt -to taste

Directions:
In a saute pan on high heat add the olive oil.
When it starts to smoke add the sprouts.
Toss them in the pan to start them browning.
Add the poppy seeds, salt & pepper, butter and roasted garlic.
Serve hot and savor.

After walking with Maralyn many miles a day in cool Lyon for the best food worldwide, it is fun to take my boat through the canals to PG’s for comfort food – American style.
