CRISPY FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with a few inches of vegetable oil. Fit with a thermometer and heat oil to 400ºF. Meanwhile, make the sauce. In a pan, add vegetable oil and garlic over medium heat. Cook for 1-2 minutes until garlic is barely golden. Add honey and the sugar and then lemon juice, zest and rice vinegar. Whisk together and simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened. Whisk in the Sriracha and remove from heat. Season to taste with kosher salt.When the oil is 400ºF, add 1/2 of the Brussels sprouts and turn the heat to high. Stir sprouts while they are frying. When they float to the top and have a nice golden brown color, about 3 minutes, remove them with a slotted spoon and transfer them to a paper-towel-lined sheet tray. Sprinkle lightly with kosher salt and bring oil temperature back to 400ºF. Add remaining half of the sprouts to the oil and repeat the process, adding the chilis in the last minute of frying the second batch.Add all of the sprouts and chili to a bowl and drizzle with the sauce right before serving hot.Note: The temperature of the oil is very important. If the temperature is low or the Brussels sprouts are cold or damp, it will bring the temperature down too low and the sprouts will be soggy, not crispy!

CRISPY DEEP FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Trim 2 lb Brussels sprouts by removing the outer layers of leaves first and then cut the bottom dried out stem portion off. Try not to remove too much of the stem so that it still keeps your Brussels sprouts intact. Cut the Brussels sprouts in half.
• Rinse your Brussels sprouts and leave them in a water bowl for about 5 minutes. I do this to remove some extra dirt that might get stuck in between the leaves.
• After rinsing, lay the Brussels sprouts out on a dish towel to let them dry fully. If the Brussels sprouts are wet or cold, this could change the temperature of the oil and affect the crispiness of the Brussels sprouts. You also want to prevent splatter by removing as much water from the Brussels sprouts as possible.
• In the same heavy-bottomed pot, add about one inch of vegetable oil (or another oil with a high smoke point) and heat to 375 °F. Slowly lower about six to seven Brussels sprouts into your oil. Fry your Brussels sprouts in multiple batches to prevent crowding and to allow your Brussels sprouts to cook evenly.
• When your Brussels sprouts have shrunk slightly and the outer layer leaves have changed to a dark brown, almost blackened color, remove them and place them onto a towel to get rid of excess oil.
• In between frying batches of Brussels sprouts, combine the fish sauce, water, rice wine vinegar, and sugar into Tupperware. Add fresh squeezed limes and mix. Close the lid on and shake vigorously to evenly blend the sugar granules.
• In a bowl, combine the freshly fried Brussels sprouts and seasoning and mix. Adjust seasoning to taste and top with fried shallots.
• Serve immediately.
• Peel the outer layer of the shallot.
• Using a mandoline slicer and some cut proof safety gloves, slice the shallots in ¼ of an inch slices.
• In a heavy-bottomed pot, add one inch of vegetable oil (you can re-use this oil later for the Brussels sprouts) and heat to 325 °F.
• Carefully add the shallots and watch over them as they brown--this can happen very quickly so watch the pot. When the shallots turn light golden brown, remove them immediately from the oil and place onto paper towels to dry. The shallots will continue to cook once you remove them so it's okay if you have extra pieces that are still light.
• Top the fried shallots on the Brussels sprouts.

BUTTER-FRIED SPROUTS WITH CRISPY SHALLOTS & ALMONDS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a frying pan over a low heat. Fry the shallots, stirring for 10 mins until golden and brown at the edges. Add the garlic and almonds. Fry for 5 mins more until the garlic is golden. Tip into a bowl.
• Melt the butter, and stir-fry the sprouts for 10 mins until softened and starting to brown, adding a splash of water if they start to catch. Season. Toss with half the shallot and almond mix, tip into a dish, then scatter over the other half.

CRISPY PAN FRIED BRUSSEL SPROUTS RECIPE WITH BACON AND BALSAMIC VINEGAR

Steps:

• Place the bacon slices onto a large, cold saute pan on the stove. Turn heat to medium. Fry bacon for a few minutes on each side, until crispy.
• Remove bacon and set aside to drain on paper towels. Leave the bacon grease in the pan.
• Add 2 tbsp (30 mL) olive oil to the pan and swirl around. Add brussels sprouts. Season with sea salt and black pepper, and stir to distribute.
• Increase heat to medium-high. Arrange brussels sprouts in a single layer in the pan, with as many surfaces touching the pan as possible. Sear for about 3-4 minutes, without moving, until well browned on the bottom. Flip or stir, and repeat on the other side. Repeat as necessary to brown all sprouts.
• Meanwhile, chop the bacon while waiting for the sprouts to brown.
• Add balsamic vinegar and remaining 1 tbsp olive oil to the pan. Cover and cook for 2 to 3 more minutes.
• Return chopped bacon to the pan.

SUPERB STIR FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Heat your wok over high heat until very hot, add the olive oil and swirl around once.
• Now add the garlic and stir fry for a few seconds to scent the oil.
• Immediately tip in the sprouts (before the garlic has a chance to burn) and stir fry constantly for about 4 minutes until the sprouts are cooked-you are aiming for tenderness with a residual crunch.
• Stir in the sun dried tomato strips, the lemon zest and lemon juice to taste; then stir fry for a final 30 seconds or so.
• Taste and season with salt and pepper if necessary.

CHEESY FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Wash sprouts off, peel first couple leaves off outside, cut small piece off bottoms and then lightly cut an X into the bottom of each sprout.
• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and blanch the sprouts until they are almost done. Then put them into an ice bath until they are cold(this will stop the cooking process and prevent them getting mushy) . Drain them and set aside.
• When ready for dinner, combine bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, and seasonings. Beat eggs in a small bowl with a little water.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat with some olive oil.
• Dunk drained sprouts in egg, let as much drain off as possible, then toss in the bread crumb/cheese mixture, pressing the crumbs lightly onto the sprouts.
• Pan cook the sprouts in the oil till golden brown and delicious.

DEEP FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• For the brussels sprouts: Heat the oven to 200F. Trim the sprouts and remove the outer leaves. Then halve or quarter them, depending on their size. Fill a large high sided pot with 2-3 inches of vegetable oil. Heat the oil to 400F. Add the brussels sprouts in batches, keeping the oil above 350F, and fry the sprouts until they are golden brown to deep brown and crispy, 2-3 minutes per batch. With a slotted spoon, transfer the fried sprouts to a paper towel lined plate to soak away some of the oil and sprinkle them with kosher salt. Then move them to a rack set over a baking tray. Keep the sprouts in the warm oven until you are ready to serve them.
• For the maple aioli: In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, salt, and 1 tbsp of the lemon juice. The yolk will get light colored and then darken a bit. Now is the time to start adding the oil. Whisking the egg mixture constantly, begin adding the oil in a slow, steady stream until all the oil is used and the sauce has thickened. Then stir in the lemon zest, paprika, maple syrup, garlic, and a dash of cayenne. Taste the aioli and add more lemon juice, cayenne and/or salt as needed.

BRUSSEL SPROUTS FRIED IN BUTTER

Steps:

• Clean and half the brussel sprouts.
• Heat up your pan on medium - hot heat. Add butter and garlic. Once garlic butter starts to sizzle, add your Brussel sprouts.
• Turn down to medium heat and stir/shake the Brussel sprouts around in the pan until golden and slightly soft. This is a bit of a slow process and takes around 15 min to get them perfect. If you don't have the time to stand by the stove, then just caramelise for around 5 min until golden and pop into a hot oven for around 10 minutes to finish off cooking.

HOW TO COOK BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Tip the sprouts into a pan and add a couple of cm water and a pinch of salt - a large pan works better so they're not piled up too high. Cover and bring the water to the boil, turn down to a simmer and cook with the lid on for 3- 5 mins depending on size.
• Test with a sharp knife to see if they are cooked through. If not, cook for a little longer and test again.
• Drain and tip the sprouts into a bowl. Serve with a knob of butter, if you wish.
