Today we bring you another recipe update!
Way back in 2012, I had just moved back from a year living in New York and eating pretty much all the things! One dish that rocked my WORLD, were these crispy fried brussels sprouts from a small spot in Brooklyn near our then home. It was my first foray into the world that is crispy sprouts, and folks, I have never looked back.
My kids have taken a liking to roasted brussels sprouts. So when I’m making this for my family, I will leave the sauce and seeds on the side. A great way for them to get exposure to different flavours and textures, while being mindful of the kiddos aversion to saucy foods. We’re being considerate without catering here.
I imagine this method would work fantastically on some broccoli florets or even kale leaves too. And as I discovered many years ago when I was a New Yorker, they are even more delicious when served alongside a cold pint of beer.

What is a vegetarian substitution for fish sauce?

We would suggest soy sauce in place of the fish sauce. It will add some more salty flavour.
