I did not like this and was going to rate it as such but then realized that I didn't use fresh ginger so that wouldn't be fair. Also I let the sprouts get mushy which wasn't the recipe's fault! Regardless though, I don't think this will work for me even if I did make all the necessary changes. I added some extra soy sauce mixed with maple syrup to salvage it. Everyone is different though so don't let my review deter you!

This was really tasty and a nice change from roasting. I followed the recipe exactly. DH said, "Make it again."

This was a pretty tasty meal for my first time trying Brussels Sprouts. I will definitely make again although I'll peel the ginger next time instead of grate it.

This is a great way to have brussel sprouts! I made 3/4 of the recipe (one pound of fresh brussel sprouts) for 3 people.
