Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Brussels sprouts
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon White wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 clove Garlic clove, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 30 grams Parmesan cheese, shaved
- 40 grams Almonds, sliced and toasted
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 50 grams Dried cranberries
Instructions
Trim the ends off the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellowed or damaged outer leaves. Rinse them thoroughly.
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add the Brussels sprouts and blanch them for 3-4 minutes, until just tender but still bright green. Drain and immediately plunge them into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
Once cooled, drain the Brussels sprouts and pat them dry with paper towels. Slice them thinly using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, white wine vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until the dressing is emulsified.
Place the sliced Brussels sprouts in a large mixing bowl. Pour the dressing over them and toss to evenly coat. Let the Brussels sprouts marinate for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Before serving, gently fold in the shaved Parmesan, toasted almond slices, chopped parsley, and dried cranberries.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Transfer to a serving dish and enjoy!
