ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH A POMEGRANATE REDUCTION



Roasted Brussels Sprouts With a Pomegranate Reduction image

If you thought you did not like brussels sprouts, this recipe will definitely change your mind. The first time my grandmother served roasted brussels sprouts to me, I could not stop eating them. When brussels sprouts are roasted, they become crispy on the outside and sweet and delicate on the inside. The addition of a warm pomegranate glaze, and the cool, sweet pomegranate seeds, makes these brussels sprouts a festive delight.

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound brussels sprouts, washed, trimmed and halved
2 tablespoons olive oil
Fine sea salt, to taste
1 cup pomegranate juice
1/3 cup sugar (can be maple, brown, date, coconut, granulated)
3 tablespoons pomegranate seeds

Steps:

  • Position the baking rack in the middle of the oven and heat the oven to 425[dg]F. In a large bowl, toss the brussels sprouts with oil and a few pinches of salt. Spread the brussels sprouts over a shallow baking pan and roast for about 30 to 35 minutes, or until the sprouts are lightly browned and crispy.
  • While the brussels sprouts are roasting, in a small saucepan combine the pomegranate juice with the sugar and set over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved. When the liquid comes to a simmer, reduce the heat to medium-low and gently simmer until the liquid is reduced to one quarter of the original amount and is thick and syrupy, about 25 minutes. Toward the end, watch the reduction carefully - it can go from thick to burned in a matter of seconds. Transfer the reduction to a cooling rack and let it come to room temperature. Do not refrigerate.
  • Drizzle the reduction over the brussels sprouts and sprinkle with the pomegranate seeds.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH WALNUTS AND POMEGRANATE



Brussels Sprouts With Walnuts and Pomegranate image

Roasting brussels sprouts brings out their nutty sweetness and keeps them crisp-crunchy around the edges. Tossing them with walnuts and tangy, jewel-like pomegranate seeds adds texture and brightness. It's worth seeking out pomegranate molasses (widely available in most large grocery stores) to finish this dish. But if you can't find it, don't let it stop you from make this celebration-worthy side.

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 pounds brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
3 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/4 cup roughly chopped walnuts
2 tablespoons pomegranate seeds, plus more to taste
Pomegranate molasses, for drizzling (optional)
Flaky salt, to serve

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, toss brussels sprouts with the olive oil. Season well with the salt and black pepper and toss again. Spread everything evenly on a sheet pan cut-side-down and roast until crisp and deeply golden brown, about 25 to 30 minutes, flipping the sprouts halfway through to ensure even browning.
  • Meanwhile, toast the walnuts in a skillet over medium-low heat, stirring frequently to ensure they don't burn, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • When the brussels sprouts are done roasting, toss them with the toasted walnuts and the pomegranate seeds. Drizzle with the pomegranate molasses (about 1 teaspoon or so), if using. Season with flaky salt.

1 quart Brussels sprouts, stemmed and leaves pulled apart
Kosher salt

Season with salt, cover and cook until the sprouts have wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the lid, raise the heat to medium-high and let the leaves brown and "frizzle," 8 to 10 minutes more.

Nutrition Facts :

Tips:

  • Choose small, firm Brussels sprouts: Small Brussels sprouts have a sweeter flavor and cook more evenly than larger ones. Look for sprouts that are tightly closed and free of blemishes.
  • Trim the Brussels sprouts: Cut off the stem end of each Brussels sprout and any yellow or damaged leaves.
  • Roast the Brussels sprouts at a high temperature: Roasting the Brussels sprouts at a high temperature (400°F or higher) will help them caramelize and develop a delicious nutty flavor.
  • Add some oil or butter: Tossing the Brussels sprouts with a little oil or butter before roasting will help them crisp up and prevent them from drying out.
  • Season the Brussels sprouts: Season the Brussels sprouts with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings before roasting. This will help to enhance their flavor.
  • Stir the Brussels sprouts halfway through roasting: Stirring the Brussels sprouts halfway through roasting will help them cook evenly.
  • Roast the Brussels sprouts until they are tender and slightly charred: The Brussels sprouts are done roasting when they are tender when pierced with a fork and have slightly charred edges.
  • Serve the Brussels sprouts immediately: Roasted Brussels sprouts are best served immediately, while they are still hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Roasted Brussels sprouts are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed as part of a variety of meals. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences. With a little bit of planning, you can roast Brussels sprouts that are perfectly tender and flavorful.
