FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

PAN FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BACON

Steps:

• Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until browned and crispy. Scoop out the bacon onto a plate lined with paper towel to drain.
• Drain most of the bacon grease, leaving about 3-4 tablespoons in the skillet.
• Add the brussels sprouts halves, water, salt and pepper to the skillet. Cover skillet with lid and let them cook for about 6-8 minutes. Check every few minutes and stir, ensuring that the brussels sprouts do not stick to the bottom of the skillet.
• Remove the lid, lower heat and continue to cook until the brussels sprouts are tender and nicely browned. This should take another 5 minutes or so and all the water should be evaporated.
• Remove from the heat and place the brussels sprouts in a serving bowl. Toss with the cooked bacon and crisp fried onions.

FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BACON AND BROWN BUTTER CROUTONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a plate with paper towels. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Fit a wire rack inside a second baking sheet.
• Slice the bacon into 1/2-inch-by-1 1/2-inch-thick strips. Place the strips into a large skillet and put over medium heat. Cook until the bacon is crisp and most of the fat has rendered, about 15 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon to the prepared plate. Remove all but 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat from the skillet. Add the butter and cook over medium heat until the butter has browned and smells nutty, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat.
• Add the cornbread cubes to a large bowl and drizzle the brown butter-bacon fat over top, tossing very gently to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Spread the cornbread onto the parchment-lined baking sheet and bake until browned, turning halfway, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, heat 3 inches of oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat to 365 degrees F. Fry the Brussels sprouts in batches (use a splatter screen to shield any water from splattering) until crisp and browned, about 4 minutes. Remove to the rack-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with salt and pepper while hot. When you are finished frying the Brussels sprouts, add the sage leaves to the hot oil and fry for 2 minutes.
• Before serving, gently toss the Brussels sprouts with the cornbread croutons and 3/4 of the bacon. Plate into a large serving bowl and top with the remaining bacon, the pomegranate seeds and fried sage leaves.

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.

SUPERB STIR FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Heat your wok over high heat until very hot, add the olive oil and swirl around once.
• Now add the garlic and stir fry for a few seconds to scent the oil.
• Immediately tip in the sprouts (before the garlic has a chance to burn) and stir fry constantly for about 4 minutes until the sprouts are cooked-you are aiming for tenderness with a residual crunch.
• Stir in the sun dried tomato strips, the lemon zest and lemon juice to taste; then stir fry for a final 30 seconds or so.
• Taste and season with salt and pepper if necessary.

STIR-FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH SHALLOTS AND SHERRY

Steps:

• Trim the ends off the brussels sprouts and remove and discard any discolored outer leaves. Shave a scant 1/4-inch-thick slice off one side of each sprout and put cut side down. Cut scant 1/4-inch-thick slices to make about 6 cups. Transfer the brussels sprouts to the colander of a salad spinner and rinse under cold water. Put the colander into the salad spinner and spin to remove excess water. Combine the sherry and soy sauce in a cup. Combine the salt and pepper in a small dish.
• Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or a 12-inch skillet over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Swirl in the oil by adding it to the sides of the pan and swirling the pan, then add the shallots and garlic and stir-fry no more than 10 seconds, until the aromatics are fragrant. Add the brussels sprouts, sprinkle with the salt mixture and stir-fry for 1 minute, just until the brussels sprouts are bright green. Swirl the sherry mixture into the wok, cover and cook 1 minute, until almost all the liquid has evaporated. Uncover and stir-fry for 2 minutes, until the Brussels sprouts are crisp-tender and the liquid has just evaporated. Sprinkle with the pine nuts.
