FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• In a heavy-bottomed pot, heat 2 inches of oil over medium-high. When oil reaches 360 degrees on a thermometer, carefully add 1/3 of the brussels sprouts. Cook, turning occasionally, until crisp and golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined tray with a slotted spoon and sprinkle with salt. Fry remaining sprouts in batches, returning oil to 360 degrees between each batch. Add shallots and chiles to oil and fry until slightly wrinkled and just beginning to color, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to tray with sprouts.
• Whisk lime juice and maple syrup in a large bowl. Add brussels sprouts, shallots, and chiles, tossing to coat evenly in lime mixture. Season with more salt to taste. Serve immediately.

Stir in onion and cook until soft, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Add Brussels sprouts to the skillet and cook without stirring until the undersides of the sprouts turn golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir to turn sprouts over, and cook other sides until golden brown, another 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH FISH SAUCE CARAMEL

Steps:

• For the fish sauce caramel: Combine granulated sugar and 1/2 cup water in a saucepan and cook, without stirring, over medium-low heat, until the mixture is nicely amber colored, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and CAREFULLY add brown sugar, fish sauce, lime juice and salt; it may splatter. Stir to combine. If the mixture seizes, return to low heat and stir until fully incorporated.
• For the Brussels sprouts: Bring oil to 350 degrees F in a deep-fryer. Trim bottoms of sprouts and halve lengthwise.
• Fry sprouts until they are crispy with some char, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and drain.
• While still hot, toss with fish sauce caramel, garnish with Garlic Chips, red chiles and fresh lime wedges.
• Bring oil to 350 degrees F.
• Thinly slice garlic cloves. Quickly fry to a light golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. (Don't let them get dark brown, or they will become bitter.) Remove from heat and drain on paper towels.

FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Remove brown outer leaves of brussel sprouts. Cut the brussel sprouts in half. NOTE: Original recipe left brussel sprouts whole. It's your choice to cut in half or leave whole.
• In sauce pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the brussel sprouts and fry, stirring occasionally, until very dark brown, almost charred, but NOT burnt.
• The last minute of cooking, add the garlic and stir in to combine. Be careful not to burn the garlic!
• Season to taste with salt, white pepper and lemon juice if using. Serve warm.

FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH WALNUTS AND CAPERS

Steps:

• Pour enough oil into a medium pot so that the oil comes 3 inches up the sides. Heat the oil to 350 degrees.
• While the oil is heating, whisk together the garlic, anchovies, serrano, red wine vinegar, honey, scallions, walnuts and extra-virgin olive oil in a bowl large enough to toss all of the Brussels sprouts. Keep the bowl near the stovetop.
• Working in batches, deep-fry the Brussels sprouts until the edges begin to curl and brown, about 3 minutes. To the last batch, add the parsley and capers (stand back-the capers will pop and sputter!). Give the contents of the pot a stir. When the color of the parsley becomes a deeper, more saturated shade of green, about 30 seconds to 1 minute, remove the contents of the pot with a skimmer and place directly in the bowl of dressing. Toss to coat. Add salt and pepper to taste.

MACRITCHIE'S FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Check brussels sprouts for old, tough outer leaves and remove. Slice them in half, especially if they are larger than golf balls.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet on medium to medium high heat. Add the sprouts.
• Fry the sprouts, making sure both sides are browned. Sear them so they are quite dark, then reduce the heat and continue to cook about 5 minutes, shaking the pan periodically.
• Add the garlic and when the pan has cooled to medium low heat. Then add the basil, salt and pepper.
• Spill a little water in the pan, enough to make a steam, and cover with a lid for the last three minutes to be sure the sprouts are tender.
• Put in a serving dish and sprinkle with a little lemon juice if desired.

STIR-FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over high for a few minutes. Drops of water should skitter across the surface then evaporate quickly. Set the pan lid and 1/2 cup water next to the stove. Add enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan (3 to 4 tablespoons), then add garlic and sizzle until fragrant and wisps of smoke rise from the oil, about 15 seconds. Add brussels sprouts, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and stir to coat with oil. Spread in an even layer, carefully add water and immediately cover.
• Cook without stirring until the water has almost completely evaporated, 4 to 6 minutes. After silent simmering, there will be loud popping sounds that quiet to a crackle.
• Uncover, sprinkle with sugar and soy sauce, and stir for 1 minute. Sprinkle with red-pepper flakes and serve.
