Ingredients (Serves 4)

1.5 lbs (680g) Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved

1.5 cups (150g) Parmesan cheese, shredded

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 cup (60ml) heavy cream (optional for extra richness)

Instructions

Prepare the Cheese: Secure the cheese shredder hand crank to your countertop with its stable suction base. Attach the 5-blade set and use the food pusher to safely shred the Parmesan into fluffy, even pieces. The sharp stainless steel blades ensure a smooth texture, perfect for a cheesy topping. Transfer the shredded cheese to a bowl.

Season the Brussels Sprouts: In a large mixing bowl, toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.

Assemble for Baking: Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the seasoned Brussels sprouts evenly on the sheet, cut side down. Drizzle with heavy cream if using, then sprinkle the shredded Parmesan generously over the top.

Bake to Perfection: Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the Brussels sprouts are tender and the cheese is golden and bubbly. Halfway through, check and rotate the pan for even cooking.

Serve and Store: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Pair with your favorite main dish. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Tips and Variations

Cheese Swap: Use Gruyère or cheddar with the 5-blade set for a different flavor.

Add Crunch: Sprinkle with breadcrumbs or crushed nuts for extra texture.

Spicy Kick: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the seasoning.

Serving Idea: Serve alongside roasted chicken or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
