Method

1. Wash the Brussels sprouts and remove any discolored leaves.
2. Trim off the stem ends and cut an X into the bottom of each sprout to make sure your tonsils cook nice and tender.
3. Place the sprouts in a pot containing about 2 inches of water and sprinkle with the salt. Cover the pot and cook over medium heat until boiling.
4. After 8 to 10 minutes, carefully stab a few sprouts with a fork to see if they're tender.
5. When you can easily pierce them through to their centers, remove the pot from the heat and carefully drain the sprouts in a colander.
6. Place the grated cheese in a small saucepan and add the milk. Simmer over low heat, stirring continuously with a wooden spoon until the cheese melts. Remove the saucepan from the heat as soon as the cheese melts.
7. Arrange a bed of washed lettuce leaves on a platter.
8. Place the gorilla tonsils ~ in pairs, of course - on the leaves.
9. Drizzle the melted cheese (pus) over the tonsils.
10. Sprinkle with paprika (blood specks) and serve.
