100gthickly sliced bacon (optional but delicious), diced or cut into batons
about 2-3tbspThai sauce (recipe below, though the amounts shown below are more than you will need - you can use the rest to make my rainbow salad with Thai salad dressing)
Thai sauce
1.5tbsptamari or gluten free soy sauce
squirt of garlic paste (or 1 garlic clove, crushed)
scant 1tbsplime juice
1/2tbspmaple syrup
1tspfish sauce
Instructions
Wash and dry the brussels sprouts. Slice the bottoms off them (if needed), then slice them in half.
Slice or dice your bacon, if using.
Heat up the olive oil over high heat in a medium to large frying pan, then toss in the brussels sprouts and bacon.
Cook for about 5 to 7 minutes over high heat, stirring occasionally (towards the end) - until the brussels sprouts are looking nice and lightly charred.
While the brussels sprouts are cooking, make your Thai sauce - simply place all the ingredients in a small glass jar, put on a lid on tightly and shake until combined.
Pour 2 to 3 tbsp of the sauce over the brussels sprouts and bacon. Let cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, then take off the heat and serve immediately. Do not overcook.
