Ingredients

Scale
Brussels Sprouts:
- 12 ounces shaved brussels sprouts
- 1 tablespoon avocado or olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup walnuts, roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries
Gochujang Butter:
- 4 tablespoons salted butter, softened
- 1 1/2 tablespoons gochujang sauce, like this one (Bibigo)
- 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar (optional)
- 1 small clove garlic, grated
- 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
- Mix up the butter ingredients – this can be done in advance and the mixture just wait for you in the fridge.
- Arrange the brussels on a sheet pan. Drizzle with the oil and salt and toss to coat. Roast for 15-20 minutes, until golden, crispy, and tender.
- Add the walnuts; return to the oven for 3-5 minutes to get the walnuts toasted. Remove from the oven.
- Add the cranberries and butter while the pan is still warm; toss to combine.
- You’re done! Yum! The butter will melt and coat every nook and cranny. It’ll smell amazing and it’s such a delight to eat!
Notes
Salt: Normally I would use more salt than 1/4 teaspoon when roasting a vegetable – however, this dish gets very umami-rich and salty very quickly once you roast the brussels sprouts and add the butter, so I do not recommend adding any more than this until you’re tasting and making final adjustments!
Brussels Sprouts: You want to look for “shaved” brussels sprouts – the ideal ones will be somewhat chunky (see video)!
