Ingredients
- 500 grams Brussels sprouts
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Caraway seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Water
Directions
Step 1
Trim the stem ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellow or damaged outer leaves. Cut each Brussels sprout in half lengthwise.
Step 2
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the caraway seeds and toast them for about 30 seconds, stirring frequently, until fragrant.
Step 3
Add the Brussels sprouts to the skillet, placing them cut-side down. Cook for 3-4 minutes without stirring, allowing the cut sides to caramelize and turn golden brown.
Step 4
Sprinkle the salt and black pepper over the sprouts. Stir the sprouts gently to coat them in the butter and caraway mixture.
Step 5
Pour 1 cup of water into the skillet and cover with a lid. Allow the sprouts to steam for 6-8 minutes, or until tender but still slightly crisp.
Step 6
Remove the lid and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, letting any remaining water evaporate and the sprouts to develop a slightly crispy texture.
Step 7
Transfer the Brussels sprouts to a serving dish and pour any remaining buttery sauce from the skillet over them. Serve warm and enjoy!
