Ingredients
Scale
Brussels Sprouts
- 500g (1lb) Brussels sprouts
Seasoning
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Toppings
- 1/3 cup (30g) parmesan, finely grated
- 1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) to get it ready for roasting the Brussels sprouts.
- Prepare Brussels sprouts: Trim the base off each sprout, cut them in half, and remove any loose, rough outer leaves to ensure even roasting.
- Toss with oil and seasonings: Place the prepared Brussels sprouts in a bowl, pour over the olive oil, and toss gently to coat evenly.
- Add garlic, salt, pepper, parmesan, and breadcrumbs: Sprinkle minced garlic, salt, black pepper, finely grated parmesan, and panko breadcrumbs over the sprouts.
- Coat and arrange on baking tray: Toss everything together so the Brussels sprouts are well coated, then spread them out on a baking tray cut side down.
- Roast the sprouts: Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. After that, flip the sprouts and roast for an additional 10 minutes until the outer leaves turn deep golden brown and become crispy.
- Serve immediately: Transfer the roasted Brussels sprouts to a warm serving bowl. Scrape off any loose parmesan and breadcrumb mixture from the tray and sprinkle it over the sprouts before serving.
Notes
- Brussels Sprouts: Choose sprouts about 3cm (1.25″) wide for the best balance of sweetness and crispiness. Very small sprouts cook too quickly, while larger ones have a stronger cabbage flavor.
- Frozen Brussels Sprouts: If using frozen, thaw well in a colander and dry thoroughly. The parmesan and panko breadcrumbs will help achieve crispiness even with frozen sprouts.
- Panko Breadcrumbs: These are Asian-style breadcrumbs larger than regular breadcrumbs, providing an extra crunchy texture.
- Storage: Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for 3 to 4 days. Reheat in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for 7 minutes to regain crispiness.
