Ok. There is nothing better than deep fried Brussels sprouts, other than serving them with a good tri trip. Their natural sweet flavor seems to be brought out more when they are deep fried. They require no other prep other than to cut them in half (or keep them whole if you want). By the time the outside is browned, the inside is crisp-tender.
While your next main course is on the bbq, try fixing these in the deep fryer to go along with it.
Deep Fried Brussels Sprouts
Ingredients
- Brussels sprouts halved
- Oil for frying
- Sea salt and fresh ground pepper to season after frying
Instructions
-
Heat your oil to 375 degrees F.
-
Add in your Brussels sprouts in batches, and remember not to overcrowd them in the oil.
-
Deep fry until they are toasty brown on the outside. Remove with a slotted spoon to paper towels for draining, and repeat until you are done.
-
Season with salt and pepper, and serve.
Recipe Notes
Fried brussels sprouts on their own are equally nice served with some freshly made garlic aioli.
