BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH SWEET CHILI SAUCE



Brussels Sprouts With Sweet Chili Sauce image

I had something similar at Noodle Star in Maui. The server said they deep fried their Brussels Sprouts leaves and then put a sauce on. Those were really addictive. But deep fried leaves with lots of sauce. So you are really not getting a lot of vegetables. This is a quick and healthier version.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, firm Brussels sprouts with tightly packed leaves. Avoid any that are yellowing or have brown spots.
  • Trim the Brussels sprouts by removing the tough outer leaves and cutting off the stem end.
  • To save time, you can halve or quarter the Brussels sprouts before cooking.
  • For a crispy texture, roast the Brussels sprouts in a hot oven. For a more tender texture, steam or boil them.
  • Sweet chili sauce is a versatile condiment that can be used to add a sweet and spicy flavor to a variety of dishes. It is also a great dipping sauce for appetizers.
  • If you don't have sweet chili sauce, you can make your own by combining ketchup, brown sugar, rice vinegar, and chili powder.
