Good to have one's culinary boundaries stretched, once in a while.
I made a really old traditional Belgian dish, that I invented about 15 years ago.
Thing is, I love Brussel sprouts.
There is only so many ways you can do them, so I got to thinking, What Would The Belgians Do ( Bruxelles being the capital of Belgium).
Since they are also famous for their beer, I figured they would cook them in beer.
Add some garlic ( A lot!) onions and potatoes.
Start out heating some olive oil till it is smoking hot, then toss in some caraway seeds and pop them like corn.
That tames them down, some.
Then add onions and garlic, pour in the beer and the rest of the ingredients.
Put in a cube or two of bouillon and some thyme and cook till done.
