Deep-fried Brussels sprouts
- Preparation and cooking time
- Total time
- A little effort
- Serves 4 as a snack
Ingredients
- 100ml orange juice
- 2 tbsp honey
- 100ml soy sauce
- for frying oil
- 400g brussels sprouts, trimmed and quartered
Method
- STEP 1
Heat the orange juice and honey in a small pan until reduced by half, then add the soy sauce and stir and bubble for a few minutes until slightly thickened. Leave to cool while you fry the sprouts.
- STEP 2
Heat a pan of oil no more than 1/3 full, to 180C, or until a cube of bread browns in 30 seconds. When hot, add the sprouts in small batches and fry for 2-3 minutes until golden-dark brown. They might spit a little when you put them in, so stand back for a few seconds. Scoop out with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper before tossing them with a drizzle of sauce and a pinch of salt.
