Ingredients

• 500 grams Brussels sprouts
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger
• 1 teaspoon Red chili flakes
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
• 2 stalks Green onions
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Trim the ends off the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half lengthwise. Rinse under cold water and pat dry with a kitchen towel.

Step 2

Mince the garlic and grate the ginger. Thinly slice the green onions, separating the white and green parts.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Set the sauce aside.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil and swirl to coat the pan.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and the white parts of the green onions. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the Brussels sprouts to the pan in a single layer, cut-side down. Let them sear for 2-3 minutes without stirring to develop a golden-brown crust.

Step 7

Sprinkle the red chili flakes, salt, and black pepper over the sprouts. Stir-fry for an additional 5-6 minutes, tossing frequently, until the sprouts are tender but still slightly crisp.

Step 8

Pour the sauce over the sprouts and stir to coat evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and clings to the sprouts.

Step 9

Remove from heat and garnish with the green parts of the green onions and sesame seeds.

Step 10

Serve hot as a side dish or over steamed rice for a complete meal.
