Name of Recipe:
Aria's Fried Brussels Sprouts
Number of People:
Serves 4-6 (as a side)
This recipe is so delicious, I had to share! I've converted it (well, sort of - it's not exactly complicated!) from an article in The Courier Mail last week, publishing the recipe by chef, Ben Russell.
Ingredients:
* 600g brussels sprouts, scored
* 200ml vegetable oil
Dressing
* 90ml grapeseed oil
* 160ml soy sauce
* 90ml rice wine vinegar
* 6g caster sugar
* 4g salt
* 2g black peppercorns
* 300g shallots, peeled
* Sesame oil, to taste
Garnish
* 80g fried shallots (from Asian section in supermarket)
* 20g mint, finely sliced (or chopped in TMX first and then set aside)
Preparation:
Dressing:-
* Grind peppercorns for 5 seconds on Speed 9
* Add shallots, chop for 10 seconds on Speed 7
* Add remainder of ingredients, mix with 50ml of water for 10 seconds on Speed 5.
* Set aside.
Sprouts:-
* Steam sprouts for 5 minutes. Remove and drain on kitchen paper.
* Heat oil over a high heat until it reaches 180°C.
* Fry the sprouts in batches, taking about 3-4 minutes per batch. They will take on a rich brown colour on the outside - don't stress if they start looking burnt, it adds to their flavour.
* Drain on kitchen paper.
To Serve:
* Dress the brussels sprouts with the dressing (I only used about a quarter of the amount made). Garnish with fried shallots and mint.
Tips/Hints:
The dressing quantities make ample - I only used about a quarter of it, so you may want to make less.
