I adapted this wonderful recipe is from The Union Square Cafe Cookbook by Danny Meyer and Michael Romano.

This simple recipe has converted lots of sworn Brussels-sprout haters into devoted connoisseurs. It has turned the sprouts into comfort food by "hashing" and stir-frying them with poppy seeds. So delicious!

Hashed Brussels Sprouts with Poppy Seeds and Lemon

Recipe Type: Brussels Sprouts, Vegetables, Garlic, Wine, Vegetarian, Diet
Yields: 4 to 6 servings
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 6 min


Ingredients:

1 pound large Brussels Sprouts*
2 tablespoons freshly-squeezed lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
1/4 cup white wine
Coarse salt
Freshly-ground black pepper

* 1 pound of Brussels sprouts = approximately 50 tiny sprouts or 17 to 20 large sprouts.


Preparation:

Wash the sprouts under running water. Cut the stems from the Brussels Sprouts, halve each one lengthwise, and remove any blemished leaves. Cut out any large cores. Slice each half into thin slices (about 1/8-inch thick) and toss with lemon juice in a large bowl.

In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil over high heat almost to the smoking point. Stir in the hashed sprouts with the minced garlic and poppy seeds.

Add the white wine and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sprouts are bright green and lightly softened but still barely crunchy.

Reduce the heat to low, season with salt and pepper; cook for 1 additional minute.

Remove from heat and transfer to a warm bowl and serve.

Makes 4 to 6 servings.
