Equipment

  • Large frying pan

Ingredients

  • 800 g Brussels sprouts
  • 2 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp fish sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds
  • Handful of parsley leaves
  • 1 red chilli deseeded and finely sliced

Method

  • Clean the Brussels sprouts, pull off any grim outer leaves, and trim the stem. Slice in half through the base. Warm a large frying pan over a moderate heat. Pour in the sesame oil and, once hot, add the sprouts. Cook for six to eight minutes (depending on their size) until the sprouts are tender on the inside, and crisp and charred in places on the outside.
  • Meanwhile, mix the soy sauce, fish sauce and vinegar together in a bowl. Take the sprouts off the heat, add the dressing and toss. Top with the sesame seeds, parsley and chilli and serve immediately.
