Brussels Sprout Leaf Recipes

Ingredients

1 lb ground pork or chicken

1 Tbsp oil

4 cloves garlic

1 onion, minced

1/4 cup hoisin sauce

2 Tbsp honey (unless your hoisin sauce is very sweet)

3 Tbsp soy sauce

2 Tbsp rice wine vinegar

2 Tbsp grated ginger

1 Tbsp garlic chili sauce, such as Sriracha (optional)

1 can water chestnuts, drained & diced

3-4 onion greens, sliced

1/2 cup peanuts, chopped (optional)

5 - 10 Brussels sprout leaves

Salt & pepper to taste

Directions

Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add ground meat and cook until browned, crumbling as you go. Drain excess fat.

Add onions and cook for about 1-2 minutes, or until onions are translucent.

Add garlic, onion, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger and garlic chili sauce & honey if using. Cook for another 2 minutes.

Add water chestnuts, onion greens and peanuts. Season with salt and pepper as desired.

To serve, spoon several spoonfuls of the mixture over a Brussels sprouts leaf. Wrap like a taco or burrito and eat!
