I made this recipe for my mother's birthday over 20 years ago. Everyone loved the Brussels sprouts! Then I lost the recipe. Recently as I was going through my mother's recipe cards, I found the copy I made for her. I had forgotten what an attractive dish this is. It is as good as I remember and best of all, it still gets rave reviews!

Tips:

- Choose fresh, tender vegetables: Look for carrots that are smooth and firm, with no blemishes. Brussels sprouts should be compact and tightly closed. - Trim the vegetables properly: Trim the ends of the carrots and remove any tough outer leaves from the brussels sprouts. - Cook the vegetables in a hot skillet: This will help to caramelize them and give them a slightly smoky flavor. - Use a combination of butter and oil: The butter will add flavor, while the oil will help to prevent the vegetables from sticking to the pan. - Season the vegetables generously: Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all good choices. - Cook the vegetables until they are tender-crisp: You don't want them to be mushy, but you also don't want them to be raw. - Serve the vegetables immediately: They are best enjoyed fresh out of the skillet.

Conclusion:

Buttery carrots and brussels sprouts are a simple but delicious side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of main courses. The combination of sweet carrots and slightly bitter brussels sprouts is a classic, and the addition of butter and garlic adds a rich, savory flavor. These vegetables are also a good source of vitamins and minerals, making them a healthy choice for your next meal.
