Brussel Sprouts ala Japan (My way)


1 lb Fresh Brussell Sprouts (rinsed)
2 Stalks Green Onion
1/4 cup Soy Sauce
1/4 tsp 5 spice
4 tbs oil

Trim about 1/4-1/2 inch off the bottom of each sprout (depending on
size).
Slice/chop sprouts fine (think shreded cabbage).
Slice/chop green onion as fine as the sprouts.


Heat oil to HOT in a wok or fry pan. Add sprouts and stir fry for
about 2 min. Add green onion and continue stir frying for about 2-3
min. more.

Add soy sauce and wait for heat to return.

Stir fry for 5 min, add 5 spice, stir fry for 1 min, remove, serve.

This lends a real nutty flavor.


I also like to put them in a cast iron pot with butter and a pinch of
salt in the grill with mesquite wood goin and cookin them. The smoke
makes them sweet!
