Asian Brussel Sprouts
Fresh Brussels sprouts are marinated in a savory soy and ginger sauce before roasting in the air fryer until tender.
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh Brussels sprouts 450 g
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1/4 cup crispy fried onions 15 g
Instructions
- Wash the Brussels sprouts. Trim off the hard woody ends and cut any large sprouts in half so they are all roughly the same size. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, minced garlic, minced ginger, and olive oil.
- Pour the liquid mixture over the Brussels sprouts. Stir well so every sprout is coated in the sauce. Let the bowl sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
- Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for 5 minutes.
- Arrange the marinated Brussels sprouts in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
- Cook for 12 minutes. Shake the basket halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.
- Check the Brussels sprouts with a fork. They should be tender. If they are still firm, cook for 1 to 2 more minutes.
- Transfer the cooked sprouts to a serving dish and scatter the crispy fried onions on top before eating.
Notes
Save the leftover marinade from the bottom of the bowl. You can simmer it in a small saucepan for a few minutes to create a thick glaze for serving.
Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket. Cook the sprouts in two batches if you have a smaller air fryer model.
You can use maple syrup or agave nectar instead of honey if you prefer a different sweetener.
