Brussels Sprouts With Candied Walnuts
- 1 pound brussels sprouts trimmed and halved
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1/2 cup walnuts unbleached
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- water
- salt
- In a small pot add orange juice and bring to a boil. Add cranberries, and remove from heat. Set aside for about 15 minutes to plump. Strain and set liquid aside.
- Heat a large frying pan and add walnuts. Stir regularly and cook for a couple minutes ensuring not to burn. Turn off heat and add maple syrup - it will sizzle. Stir nuts around to fully coat and pour onto parchment lined sheet and let cool for about 10 minutes. Once cooled break apart.
- In a large pan, heat olive oil and sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add brussels sprouts, pinch of salt and pepper, and cook, stirring frequently until caramelized, about 10 minutes. Add 1/4 cup of water and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and pour onto serving plate. Season with salt & pepper as needed, garnish with cranberries and walnuts. Finish with a drizzle of the leftover orange juice.
