Brussels Sprouts are rich source of Vitamin C and Vitamin K and they taste so good. Today, When I went to grocery store my 9 year old boy told me that how his teacher discussed the benefits of eating greens regularly and how he has now finally decided to eat greens without making any faces. He pointed towards these cute baby cabbages and asked me to buy them. I had never cooked Brussels as we don’t get them in India. After moving to USA I saw them the first time but had never tried them.
I went through some blogs and cooking websites on internet to find some good recipe and finally mixed and matched some recipes to make my style of Indian Brussels sprouts.Here is the recipe
BRUSSEL SPROUTS INDIAN WAY
INGREDIENTS:
Brussels Sprouts-400gms
Chopped ginger-1tbsp
Chopped garlic-1tbsp
Coriander seeds-1tbsp
Cumin seeds-1tsp
Oil-1tbsp
Red chilly flakes-1tsp
Salt- to taste
METHOD
- Wash the Brussels sprouts and cut them into halves. Remove the base also as we do in cabbage. Arrange all the ingredients before starting to cook. I always like to pre arrange all the ingredients as it ease my cooking a lot.
- Take a non stick pan and dry roast the coriander seeds. Once they are roasted and start giving aroma turn off stove and let them cool. Now grind them to a granule consistency.
- In the pan add oil and put cumin seeds. Let them crackle and then add ginger and garlic. then add all the spices and cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Add the Brussels sprouts and cover it for 20 minutes on mid flame. Stir in between to check if they are cooked or not. Don’t over cook them as they don’t taste so good and loose nutrition. Serve hot with Roti or parantha.
