brussel sproutssweet chilli sauce

Ingredients

  • Brussels sprouts halved/quartered
  • Cooking oil
  • Garlic cloves
  • Fish sauce or soy sauce
  • Sweet chili sauce

Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 400F.
  2. On a baking sheet, toss the brussel sprouts in cooking oil to coat evenly. Roast in the oven for 20 minutes, tossing them halfway so they cook evenly.
  3. Remove brussel sprouts from the oven and turn on oven broiler to high, with the oven rack positioned in the top third of the oven.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining ingredients and pour over the brussel sprouts, tossing to coat evenly.
  5. Broil the brussel sprouts for 5 minutes or until the sugar in the chili sauce is bubbling and caramelizing. Watch them carefully so they don’t burn! Remove from the oven and serve immediately.

Notes

  • I like to steam the sprouts a little before roasting (you can do this in advance). This way the sprouts are cooked through before they start getting crispy
