Brussels sprouts are traditionally eaten on Christmas eve dinner in many households. But the season actually starts in October, so you have much more time to enjoy them. This time, we went for a mixture of east and west and played with the seasoning a bit to get this awesome Asian style side-dish.

Sautéed Brussels Sprout I used to oven bake this but, realised sautéing this is much faster and equally yummy. Crispy and caramelised on the outside, tender and juicy inside. With simple ingredients and the right cooking method this becomes a yummy side dish. Wash the Brussels sprouts with some salt and drain it. Cut the tough ends off and cut it into half lengthwise. In a skillet heat olive oil and add some dried mixed herbs then add the Brussels sprouts. Do not stir it, let it caramelise on one side. Meanwhile, chop 2-3 cloves of garlic and throw it in. Add salt, pepper and chilli flakes or other spices that u like and start stirring it. Let it cook till it turns brown and caramelised. Finally, add a splash of balsamic vinegar and serve hot. So healthy… so yummy… so easy….. try it !! ❤️Swipe left for more pictures … #brusselssprouts #helthyfood #healthylifestyle #healthyliving #healthyeating #healthyrecipes #vegetarianrecipes #vegetarian #veganrecipes #vegan #easyrecipes #simplerecipe #simplemeals #cleaneating #homecooking #saralathehomechef #chefathome #homemadefood #food #foodporn #foodie #instafood #foodphotography #foodstagram #foodlover #delicious #photooftheday #dinner #foodgasm #foodies
