Beehive Brussels Sprouts with Spicy Vinaigrette
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons orange juice
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons sriracha or sambal oelek (in Asian markets and some supermarkets)
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon chopped jalapeno
- 1 1/2 teaspoons grated ginger
- 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped garlic
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 4 cups brussels sprouts, stemmed and cut into thin wedges
- Salt and pepper
- 1 cup thick plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons crumbled honeycomb
- 1 shiso leaf or 6 mint leaves, julienned
- 2 tablespoons fried shallots (optional)
- In a blender, combine all the vinaigrette ingredients.
- Blend until smooth; set aside.
- In a large saute pan over medium-low heat, heat the vegetable oil and butter until it foams.
- Add sprouts and saute until browned in spots, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Add about half the vinaigrette, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, and continue to cook until the sprouts are crisp-tender, 2 minutes longer.
- Add more vinaigrette; it may not all be needed.
- Spread the yogurt thinly over a serving plate, and mound the brussels sprouts on top.
- Dot with crumbled honeycomb, and garnish with shiso and fried shallots (if using).
