Russian River Brussels Sprouts

Submitted by Member 610488

"This recipe is from the boon eat + drink in Guerneville, California. Instead of roasting the Brussels sprouts, the restaurant deep-fries them (using rice bran oil) at 350 degrees to cook and color, about 1 minute and 10 seconds. NOTE: Personally made, changes needed - parboil or precook bs on stove or microwave 5 min. Dry well then coat with oil, cook in the oven, add 1 tbsp honey or eqiv to allow dressing to stick to bs, toss and serve hot."
