SHRIMP AND BRUSSELS SPROUT SPRING ROLLS WITH SESAME GINGER DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Fill a high-sided, 5-quart pot halfway with canola oil. Preheat the oil over medium heat to 350 degrees F
• Sprinkle the shrimp on both sides with salt and pepper. Coat a large saute pan with enough oil to coat the bottom and place on medium heat. Add the shrimp and saute, flipping once, until they begin to curl and turn opaque, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the garlic to pan halfway through and cook briefly, making sure not to burn. Deglaze the pan with the white wine and cook off the liquid. Remove from the heat and pour the contents onto a tray to cool.
• Bring the pan back to the heat and add a little more oil. Add the Brussels sprouts, cook to sweat and then season with salt and pepper. Add the chiles and cook for another minute. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool. Place the cooked shrimp on the cutting board and run knife through it for a rough chop. Place into a mixing bowl. Mix in the Brussels sprouts, chopped peanuts and Thai basil. Season with salt and pepper.
• To build the egg roll, lay the wrapper flat on the work surface like a diamond, with one corner facing you. Brush a little egg wash over the top corner and edges of the wrapper. Lay some of the stuffing in the bottom third of the wrapper in a horizontal log, leaving a 1-inch gap on either side. Fold the bottom corner over the stuffing, then fold the sides inside like an envelope and roll all the way to the top. Place the egg rolls on a sheet tray until ready to fry.
• Fry the egg rolls in the oil until golden brown and crispy, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oil carefully and place them on a paper-towel-lined sheet tray. Place on a platter and serve with the Sesame Ginger Dipping Sauce.
• In a small bowl whisk together the soy sauce, honey, scallions, vinegar, ginger, oil and chiles. Add salt to taste.

GINGER & SESAME SPROUTS

Steps:

• Blanch the sprouts in boiling water and drain well. Heat most of the oil in a wok and add the ginger. Sizzle for a moment, then add the sprouts and stir-fry until hot. Scatter over the sesame seeds and drizzle with a touch more oil. Season with salt, if you like, and serve.

SESAME BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Get a pan on a medium heat and add in the olive oil.
• Slice the Brussels sprouts in half and place them flat side down into the pan for 3 to 4 minutes. You're looking for them to go golden so don't be tempted to turn them! Season with sea salt and black pepper.
• Slice the spring onions on the diagonal and add to the pan around the sprouts.
• Cut the butter into slices and add to the pan around the sprouts and spring onions.
• Slice up your red chile and scatter into the pan, adding the seeds if you're feeling brave!
• Add the soy sauce and sesame oil and give it all a good toss. Add in your water to ensure they cook through for about 3 to 4 minutes. This will also create a sauce for your spouts.
• In a separate pan, toast your sesame seeds in a dry pan over medium heat for 2 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring occasionally.
• Serve on a plate and scatter over the browned sesame seeds.
