I’ve never been a big fan of Brussels sprouts, mostly because of their sulfurous odor when cooked. I recently found how to fix this problem: the sprouts should never be steamed of boiled for more than 7 minutes.
Brussels Sprouts with Fish Sauce recipe – 143 calories
Ingredients:
1 lbs Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved lengthwise
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons fish sauce
salt, to taste
Preparation:
1. Bring a heavily salted pot of water to a boil.
2. Parboil the Brussels sprouts until just tender (for about 3-5 minutes).
3. Drain, flush with cold water, and drain well. Set aside.
4. Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat.
5. Add the Brussels sprouts, putting them facing down. Increase the heat to medium-high or high.
6. Let the sprouts cook for about 2 minutes, until they are light golden on their cut side. Turn them and continue cooking for a little longer to heat them through.
7. Add 3 tablespoons of fish sauce, turning the sprouts so they absorb the seasoning.
8. Transfer to a serving bowl and enjoy immediately.
