Gochujang Spiced Korean Brussels Sprouts
Gochujang Spiced Korean Brussels Sprouts
Notes
This pairs excellently with this kimchi recipe
Ingredients
- 4 heaped cups halved, cleaned Brussels sprouts
- 3-4 cloves of garlic minced
- 1/3 cup Korean Gochujang Sauce
- 1 Tablespoon sesame oil, (use water if avoiding oil )
- 1 Teaspoon sesame seeds – raw or toasted
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Make sure your Brussels sprouts are rinsed, dried, and halved and any large stem portions are removed.
- Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add sesame oil (or water) to the pan and evenly spread the Brussels sprouts in the pan so each one is touching the surface of the pan (make sure not to over crowd them).
- Cover and cook for 2 minutes. Then remove lid and stir-fry uncovered for 2 minutes more, stirring occasionally to brown all sides. Burnt Brussels sprouts taste bitter so make sure to keep the heat not too high at all times.
- Once the Brussels sprouts appear to be caramelized, add the Gochujang sauce, minced garlic and salt. Stir-fry for 1-2 minutes more to coat and caramelize the sprouts even more. Then turn off heat and transfer to a serving platter. Garnish with sesame seeds. Enjoy hot.
