Ingredients
300 g pkg
frozen brussels sprouts, or 2 cups fresh
1 teaspoon
canola oil
1
small shallot, minced
2 tablespoons
dried cranberries
1 tablespoon
pure maple syrup
1 tablespoon
balsamic vinegar
Instructions
Method:
Cook Brussels sprouts according to package instructions or steam fresh ones to desired tenderness. See below on how to prep them correctly.
While they are cooking, heat a medium frying pan over medium heat. Add oil and shallots and sauté for 3-5 minutes or just until they start to turn golden brown.
Add cranberries and maple syrup. If the Brussels aren’t ready when you are, remove the pan with the cranberries and maple syrup from the heat.
When the Brussels sprouts are cooked, add them to the frying pan to coat with the maple syrup mixture. Drizzle with vinegar, toss, and serve.
