I love braised cabbage but this adds a bit of cream if you're not making cheesy leeks or similar.   Ingredients 1 savoy cabbage, leaves cut into thin strips 2 tbsp butter 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 tsp sea salt Pinch black pepper 100ml double cream  2 tbsp water   Method   Add the butter to a large pan and heat.

I gave it a spa day prior to it's sauna and it was honestly the nicest turkey ever to grace our household. So juicy and the flavours really permeated throughout.

Toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil
