Sprouts with mustard seeds

Classic Home Cooking 1995 Dorling Kindersley Cookbook. This is a big cookbook (over 500 pages), oversized, and heavy. There are colorful photos on every page. I decided to try a few of the veggie recipes, because the photos in the center of the book tempted me. Now, I will say, these recipes were bland, but they were good starting points. I added my own seasonings, and garlic, and scallions. I am sharing two recipes here, because I forgot to take a photo of the Summer Peas and Beans dish, so I am using the photo in the book. These recipes are on page 357 of this massive book. My husband ate 2 bowlfuls of these dishes in the past two days, and added the recipe to his bowl of soup that evening. I also like to top my veggies with slivered almonds or crushed walnuts. My husband likes this extra touch

Tomorrow, I will be making the Gingers Parsnips, and on Friday, I’ll be making the Glazed Carrots and Turnips, because I have these items in my refrigerator.

Which reminds me, quite a few of these recipes got my attention, because they are items I already have on hand.

Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Sriracha Aioli

Delicious!

The lime juice and lemon juice were spot on for this dish. For the dip, I used 2 tsps. of the Sriracha chili sauce, because my husband does not like things too hot, and since the sriracha was on the brussels sprouts, I decided to keep it tame. I could have eaten it with more chili sauce in the mayo, but husband says the spice was perfect.

I also added broccoli and garlic cloves to the other side of the baking sheet, and a couple of chicken thighs.

My husband said the dip was excellent with those as well. This is a dish I will make again.

here is the recipe

in the new TOH Annual Recipes issue on page 7, by Molly Winsten.

I was on a workout machine this morning, and I started to scan this, but couldn’t get past the first couple pages, because I kept saying, “That looks good! I have all of this! and Oh my”
