Preparation

Step 1
Pull off any tough outer leaves of the sprouts. Using a paring knife, make a couple of crossed gashes in the base of each sprout.
Step 2
Put the sprouts in a saucepan and add water to cover and salt. Bring to a boil and cook 10 to 12 minutes, or until tender. Drain well.
Step 3
Heat the butter in a saucepan and add the onion, cumin, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until onion is wilted. Add the sprouts and stir until the sprouts are coated with butter and are hot. Serve.
