Brussels Sprouts Stir fry

Description Recipe

Brussels Sprouts Stir fry with peanut garlic spice mix

Admit it, when was the last time you ate Brussels sprouts? I was indulged in these beautiful cabbage buds (to me!) one year back when I saw at some one's blog and thought of giving it a try. Though I was skeptical initially, but started to cook with Brussels sprouts quiet often and now it has become one of our family favorites. JB loves having Brussels sprouts with chapatis, rotis or rice and dal.

Brussels sprouts can be cooked in many ways. Some like to eat it raw, some boil it, some roast it, some stir fry it while some bake it. There are many yummy recipes available in the food blogosphere! But only one basic formula: Treat this veggie as you do with cabbage and it will justify its presence in the dish you make with it.

Many people like to have it when the Brussels sprouts are well cooked. Check this article on San Francisco Chronicle I bet you will go back to this veggie again and again! I am making Brussels sprouts stir fry with the spice mix I blogged last week. Now sit back and enjoy the show….oops recipe!

Yield: 4-5 servings

12-15
Brussels sprouts
1
shallot(onion), diced thinly
2
tbsp roasted red pepper homemade or store bought
2
tbsp peanut garlic spice mix

1
tsp cumin
1
tsp mustard seeds
2-3
dried red chillies, roughly torn into two pieces
3-4
curry leaves

tbsp olive oil

Clean brussels sprouts, remove any loose leaves and chop them into bite size.

Heat oil in a large sauté pan, add all the ingredients under tempering list and fry for a minute. Turn heat to medium high, add diced shallots, hit some salt and this will sweat the shallots. Add roughly chopped roasted red pepper and diced brussels sprouts.

Sauté on high for about 10 minutes, if required sprinkle some water and cook it till done.

Lastly add the peanut garlic spice mix and cook for another two minute until it is mixed well.

Serve with Indian flat bread/rotis or rice.
