Charred Orange Pomegranate And Pistachio Brussels Sprouts Recipe By Tasty Food

CHARRED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BACON AND MAPLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Cook the bacon in a large cast-iron pan in the oven or on the stovetop until browned and crisp and the fat has rendered out, about 10 minutes. Set the bacon aside on a cutting board to let cool. Increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees F.
• Arrange the Brussels sprouts in a single layer in concentric circles, cut-side down, in the bacon fat in the pan. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook over medium-high heat until the sprouts begin to caramelize, about 4 minutes . When they begin to brown, transfer the pan to the oven and roast until charred and tender, about 15 minutes.
• Return the pan to medium heat. Transfer the sprouts to a bowl, leaving some fat behind. Add the shallots and cumin to the pan and cook, stirring often, until the shallots soften and the cumin smells fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the maple syrup, mustard and salt and pepper to taste, and whisk until bubbly. Add the sprouts to the sauce and remove the pan from the heat. Add the chives and stir to coat the sprouts in the sauce. Transfer to a serving plate.
• Chop the bacon and sprinkle on top.

SHAVED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH POMEGRANATE ORANGE VINAIGRETTE AND PECANS

Steps:

• Trim the top and bottom of each orange. Put the oranges on one flat end and remove the rest of the rind in strips. Working over a bowl (to catch the juice) slice just to the left and right of each membrane, freeing each perfect wedge. Slice each segment in half crosswise and set aside. Squeeze the rest of the juice from the empty membranes into the bowl.
• Make the vinaigrette: To the bowl with the orange juice, add the vinegar, molasses, orange zest, and salt and pepper to taste, and whisk to combine. Slowly add the oil, whisking until emulsified.
• Toss the salad: In a large bowl, combine the shaved sprouts, the reserved orange segments, and the pomegranate seeds, add the vinaigrette, and toss to combine. Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving or cover and refrigerate for up to 8 hours. Transfer to a platter and garnish with pecans.

CHILLI-CHARRED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Bring a pan of salted water to the boil. Add the Brussels sprouts and cook for 4-5 mins until just tender, then drain and leave to cool a little before slicing in half vertically.
• Meanwhile, heat 3 tbsp olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat, add the garlic and cook until golden but not burnt, around 4 mins. Use a slotted spoon to remove the garlic and discard. Add the chilli flakes and a big pinch of salt to the oil, then put the sprouts cut-side down in the pan, and leave them to cook for around 10 mins. Don't be tempted to move them - this ensures that they get some colour. Add the remaining olive oil and the lemon juice, then cook for a few mins more.
• Tip onto a large serving platter, top with lemon zest and season. These will hold in a low oven for 20 mins while you get everything else ready.

SIZZLED SPROUTS WITH PISTACHIOS & POMEGRANATE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Put the sprouts in the pan, cut-side down, and leave them to fry for 10-15 mins, tossing occasionally. If they're just lightly brown, carry on cooking for a further 5 mins until blistered.
• Scatter over the pistachios and stir-fry until toasted. Remove from the heat and stir through the pomegranate seeds. Season with salt and tip into a serving dish. Drizzle with a little pomegranate molasses, if you like.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH POMEGRANATE SEEDS

Steps:

• Coat a large saute pan with olive oil; add the garlic and red pepper and heat over medium heat. Cook until the garlic has turned a lovely golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes, then remove it from the pan and ditch it -- it has fulfilled its garlic destiny! Add the pancetta and walnuts and cook until the pancetta is crispy and brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the Brussels sprout leaves and toss to combine. Season with salt, cover and cook until the sprouts have wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the lid, raise the heat to medium-high and let the leaves brown and "frizzle," 8 to 10 minutes more. Taste and season with salt if needed. Serve garnished with the pomegranate seeds.

BRUSSEL SPROUTS WITH PISTACHIOS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the Brussels sprouts and shallot and saute until just wilted, about 5 minutes, being careful not to let them burn. Add the lemon zest, juice and pistachios and continue to saute until completely heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Top with a sprinkle of sea salt.
