Brussel Sprouts Stir Fry

Experience the flavorful simplicity of Indian-style Brussels sprouts stir fry. Sautéed with spices like cumin, and turmeric, and a kick from green chillies, these tender sprouts offer a delicious and healthy side dish bursting with flavor. I remember my childhood days when my GrandDad gets Brussel sprouts from his summer vacation in Ooty and my mom used to make sambar with it, which surprisingly taste good too 🙂

  • 1/2 tsp Turmeric powder

Seasoning

  • 1 tbsp Oil
  • 1 sprig Curry leaves
  • 1 tsp Jeera (Cumin Seeds)

Instructions
 

  • Rinse and dry brussel sprouts. Trim the extra stem and cut them in halves.
  • Place the Brussel sprouts in a microwaveable bowl and sprinkle some water over it. Microwave the bowl for 3 minutes and keep it aside.
  • Heat oil, add jeera and let it crackle.
  • Add the curry leaves & then the grated garlic to the oil along with jeera, saute for a few seconds.
  • Then add the cut green chillies, turmeric powder and fry for a minute.
  • Add Brussel sprouts and salt and mix them well.
  • Keep the flame in medium and cover it with a lid so the sprouts get cooked. After 3 mins, open the lid and keep sautéing till the sprouts get browned and crunchy.

Tips

  • Don’t keep it covered with the lid for a longer time, or else the Brussel sprouts will become soft and mushy.
  • Brussels sprouts boast high levels of many nutrients, rich in antioxidants and high in fiber.
  • Charred Brussel sprouts give a great taste when cooked in an iron skillet.
