Almay Jordaan On Crispy, Fried Brussels Sprouts (and How To Tame Temperature)
  1. Slice brussels sprouts in half and squeeze gently to separate layers a bit.

  2. Heat light olive oil in a medium saucepan until smoking. Tip in the sprouts. Fry until browned all over, turning every now and then. They should be crispy. Season with a generous pinch of salt and spoon out of the saucepan. Discard oil.

  3. Drop the butter and a quick drizzle of extra olive oil into the pan, add the garlic and anchovies, and leave to melt together on a medium heat. When fragrant, add mushrooms and cook gently. If the mushrooms seem like they are drying out, add a splash of water to get things going, and cook mushrooms through – about 4 minutes.

  4. Turn off heat. Tip sprouts back in and squeeze the whole lemon’s juice over the vegetables and mix everything. Turn onto a warm plate, finely grate (preferably with a microplane) mimolette all over the vegetables until it looks like an orange cloud.

  5. Sprinkle piment d’espelette liberally over the cheese.

  6. Pour a chilled glass of chardonnay and serve.
