Reduce heat and cook until mixture is a dark caramel color and reaches 310 degrees on a candy thermometer, about 15 minutes. Stir in chile mixture until dissolved. Remove from heat and stir in cilantro and miso, if using; add additional fish sauce and lime juice, if desired. Set caramel mixture aside.

CARAMELIZED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH CHEESE CRUST

Steps:

• Toss cleaned and cut sprouts in a light coating of olive oil.
• Heat the 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Do not overheat. Place the brussels sprouts in the pan flat side down in a single layer. Sprinkle with a couple pinches of salt. Cover and cook for roughly 5 minutes; the bottoms of the sprouts should only show a hint of browning.
• Uncover and increase the heat until the flat sides are deeply browned and caramelized. Add the minced garlic to the pan then turn the sprouts to the rounded side to brown slightly.
• Season with additional salt and the freshly ground black pepper. Sprinkle on top your cheese of choice. If desired, dust lightly with breadcrumbs.
