- 1. Rinse the Brussels sprouts. Cut off the stem ends and remove any discolored outer leaves.
- 2. Combine the sprouts, salt, and water in a wok over high heat. When the water comes to a boil, reduce the heat, cover the wok, and simmer for about 5 min, shaking the pan occasionally to rearrange the sprouts.
- 3. When the sprouts are just easy to pierce to the center with a knife or possibly sharp-pronged fork, remove the wok from the heat, drain the sprouts thoroughly, and transfer to a bowl. Toss with the lemon juice.
- 4. Add in the pears, cider, and nutmeg to the wok. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 min or possibly till the liquid is reduced considerably. Stir in the Brussels sprouts and hazelnuts; heat briefly, stirring. Add in more salt if needed and serve.
- TIPS: Toast the hazelnuts for 10 min in a preheated 350F oven. Wrap the nuts in a towel and rub vigorously to remove their somewhat bitter-tasting skin. It may not all come off, but no matter.
- NOTES : Take care not to overcook these minicabbages! Sweet pears, cider, and nutmeg wonderfully complement their naturally assertive cruciferous flavor. Substitute other pear varieties for the Bartletts, if you'd like.
- This was good!-) Exceptional. The Bartlett pear, nearly ripe, was a mellow touch of sweet - we use a healthy pinch of mace, apple juice instead of cider and didn't have the lemon to add in - thinking it's not needed but a little zest would make nice surprises. Served with baked potato, topped with a spread (store-bought and low fat) smoked cream cheese with mushrooms and artichoke, garnished with crunchy chopped radish. I recommend this one.
