Tips:
- Choose the right Brussels sprouts: Look for firm, bright green Brussels sprouts with tightly closed leaves. Avoid any sprouts that are yellowing or have brown spots.
- Trim the Brussels sprouts: Trim the stem end of each Brussels sprout and remove any yellow or wilted leaves.
- Halve the Brussels sprouts: Cut each Brussels sprout in half lengthwise. This will help them cook more evenly.
- Parboil the potatoes: Parboiling the potatoes before roasting them will help them cook through and become tender. You can also microwave the potatoes until tender for added time-saving.
- Use a hot oven: Roasting the vegetables at a high temperature will help them caramelize and brown. Aim for an oven temperature of 425°F (220°C).
- Don't overcrowd the pan: Make sure to spread the vegetables out in a single layer on the baking sheet. If the pan is too crowded, the vegetables will steam instead of roast.
- Toss the vegetables halfway through cooking: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
- Make the glaze ahead of time: The glaze can be made up to 2 days ahead of time. Simply store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
- Serve the vegetables immediately: Roasted Brussels sprouts and potatoes are best served hot out of the oven. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
