Ingredients

• 500 grams Brussels sprouts
• 125 milliliters Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Begin by thoroughly rinsing the Brussels sprouts under cold water. Trim the stems and remove any yellow or damaged outer leaves. Cut each Brussels sprout in half.

Step 2

In a large frying pan or deep fryer, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. The oil is ready when a small test piece of Brussels sprout sizzles upon contact.

Step 3

Carefully add the Brussels sprouts to the hot oil in batches to avoid overcrowding, ensuring they sit in a single layer in the pan. Fry each batch for about 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally until they turn golden brown and crispy.

Step 4

Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried Brussels sprouts to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Step 5

In a small bowl, combine the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Sprinkle this spice mixture over the fried Brussels sprouts, tossing to ensure they are evenly coated.

Step 6

Drizzle the lemon juice over the seasoned Brussels sprouts and give them another quick toss.

Step 7

Serve immediately while hot, enjoying them as a tasty snack or complement to your main dish.
