Description

An innovative take on roasted Brussels sprouts with a delightful blend of fish sauce and maple syrup, perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb Brussels Sprouts, trimmed
  • 4 tsp Fish Sauce
  • 1 Tbsp Maple Syrup
  • 1/4 tsp White or Black Pepper, freshly ground
  • 56 Cloves Garlic, thinly sliced
  • 4 Tbsp Neutral Flavored Oil
  • Neutral Flavored Oil, as needed
  • Fried Garlic (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat the oil in a small pot over medium-low heat, adding enough oil to cover the sliced garlic.
  2. Test the oil with one piece of garlic; when it bubbles, it’s ready.
  3. Fry the remaining sliced garlic until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Strain the fried garlic through a sieve and let it rest on a paper towel.
  5. Prep a large skillet by heating enough reserved oil to coat the bottom.
  6. Arrange the Brussels sprouts cut side down in a single layer in the skillet.
  7. Sear on medium-high without stirring for about 4 minutes until browned, then flip and cook for an additional minute.
  8. Remove the sprouts and repeat with remaining sprouts, adding oil if needed.
  9. Combine the first batch of Brussels sprouts back into the skillet, tossing for 10-15 seconds to reheat.
  10. Pour in the fish sauce, maple syrup, and white pepper, mixing thoroughly to coat.

Notes

Ensure Brussels sprouts are completely dry before cooking for the best texture. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
