Best Brussels Sprouts

     A sweet and tangy way to enjoy fresh brussels sprouts! They also taste great at room temperature.



Ingredients:
     1 Pound fresh brussels sprouts, cleaned, trimmed and cut in half
     2 TBSP olive oil
     Salt
     3/4 Cup water or veggie stock
     2 TBSP sugar
     2 TBSP apple cider vinegar
     Black pepper


Directions:
     1. Heat oil in sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add brussels sprouts and sprinkle with salt to taste. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until the sprouts began to turn golden, about 5-10 minutes.

     2. Add 1/2 cup of the water or stock and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer, covered with lid slightly ajar, until brussels sprouts are almost tender and the water is mostly cooked away, about 10 minutes. 

     3. Remove the lid and add the last 1/4 cup of water or stock, the sugar and apple cider vinegar. Cook at a lively simmer, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is reduced to a syrup, about 5 minutes. Season with pepper as desired.
