Ingredients
- 500 grams Brussels sprouts
- 60 grams All-purpose flour
- 2 large Egg
- 150 grams Breadcrumbs
- 50 grams Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 as needed Olive oil spray (optional for baking)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) or prepare a deep fryer if frying the Brussels sprouts.
Step 2
Wash and trim the Brussels sprouts, removing any wilted outer leaves and cutting larger sprouts in half for even cooking.
Step 3
Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with lightly beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Coat each Brussels sprout in flour, shaking off any excess. Dip it into the egg mixture, allowing any excess egg to drip off, then coat it thoroughly in the breadcrumb mixture.
Step 5
For baking, place the breaded Brussels sprouts on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Lightly spray with olive oil for extra crispiness. Bake for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
Step 6
For frying, heat oil in a deep fryer or heavy-bottomed pan to 180°C (350°F). Fry the Brussels sprouts in small batches for 3-5 minutes until golden and crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Step 7
Serve the breaded Brussels sprouts warm with your favorite dipping sauce, like aioli or ranch.
