MOMOFUKU'S ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH FISH SAUCE VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Combine the vinaigrette (below), cilantro stems, and mint in a bowl, and set aside.
• Peel away any loose or discolored outer leaves, trim the dry end of the stems with a knife, and cut the sprouts in half. Cut any especially large ones in quarters. Do not wash, especially if frying the sprouts. If roasting, and you must, dry very well.
• To roast the brussels sprouts (recommended): Heat the oven to 400 degrees F. Heat 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil (or just enough to evenly coat the bottom of the pan) in 2 oven-safe wide skillets (12 to 14 inches) over medium heat. When the oil slides easily from side to side of the pan, add the brussels sprouts cut side down. When the cut faces of the sprouts begin to brown, transfer the pan to the oven to finish cooking, about 15 minutes. Alternately, if you don't have 2 large skillets or are cooking more sprouts for a larger crowd, roast them in the oven: toss them with 1 tablespoon of oil per pound and spread them on a baking sheet, cut sides down. Roast in the oven, checking for browning every 10-15 minutes, tossing them around with a spatula only once they start to brown nicely.The sprouts are ready when they are tender but not soft, with nice, dark brown color.
• To fry the brussels sprouts: Heat 1 1/2 inches of oil in a deep saucepan over medium-high heat until a deep-fry or instant-read thermometer registers 375°F. Line a plate with paper towels. Fry in batches that don't crowd the pan -- be careful, these will pop and spatter. Brussels sprouts will take about 5 minutes: when the outer leaves begin to hint at going black around the edges-i.e., after the sprouts have sizzled, shrunk, popped, and browned but before they burn-remove them to a paper towel-lined plate or tray.
• Serve warm or at room temperature. When ready to serve, divide the brussels sprouts among four bowls (or serve it all out of one big bowl), top with the dressing to taste and cilantro leaves, and toss once or twice to coat.
• Combine the fish sauce, water, vinegar, lime juice, sugar, garlic, and chiles in a jar. Taste; If too salty, add more water and/or lime juice. This vinaigrette will keep for up to a week in the refrigerator.

ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH FISH SAUCE VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425F. Spread the halved Brussels sprouts out on a parchment-lined baking sheet, drizzle with oil and toss with your hands to coat. Roast for 20-30 minutes, stirring once or twice, until deep golden.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl whisk together the sugar, fish sauce, water, soy sauce, lime juice, garlic and chili flakes.
• When the Brussels sprouts come out of the oven, toss them with the cilantro and then a drizzle of vinaigrette (as much as you like of each) while they're still warm. The leftover vinaigrette will keep in the fridge for a few weeks.
• Makes as much as you like.

ROASTED COD WITH CARROTS AND BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Put a rimmed baking sheet in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 475 degrees F. Toss the Brussels sprouts, carrots, red onions, bacon, thyme leaves, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Spread on the hot baking sheet and roast until the vegetables are tender and start browning around the edges, about 20 minutes.
• Season the cod all over with salt and pepper and brush with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Arrange the cod fillets about 2 inches apart on top of the vegetables and top each with a thyme sprig. Roast until the fish is just cooked through and the Brussels sprouts are browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Discard the thyme sprigs. Sprinkle the cod and vegetables with the parsley and serve with lemon wedges.

SKILLET-ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS W/CHILE, PEANUTS AND MINT-ATK

Steps:

• Arrange Brussels sprouts in single layer, cut sides down, in 12-inch nonstick skillet. Drizzle oil evenly over sprouts. Cover skillet, place over medium-high heat and cook until sprouts are bright green and cut sides have started to brown, about 5 minutes.
• Uncover and continue to cook until cut sides of sprouts are deeply and evenly browned and paring knife slides in with little to no resistance, 2 to 3 minutes longer, adjusting heat and moving sprouts as necessary to prevent them from overbrowning. While sprouts cook, combine chile, lime juice, fish sauce and 1/4 teaspoon salt in small bowl.
• Off heat, add chile mixture to skillet and stir to evenly coat sprouts. Season with salt to taste. Transfer sprouts to large plate, sprinkle with peanuts and mint, and serve.
