A delightful twist on stir-fried Brussels sprouts with a garlic sesame flavor.
Steam the Brussels sprouts until they are just tender, about 7 minutes.
Steaming the sprouts first ensures they cook evenly and remain tender.
Heat the peanut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Using a hot skillet helps to sear the sprouts quickly, locking in their flavor.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet, stirring until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Be careful not to burn the garlic as it can turn bitter.
Stir in the soy sauce, red pepper flakes, black pepper, sugar, and sesame seeds.
Mix the sauce ingredients well to ensure an even coating on the sprouts.
Add the steamed Brussels sprouts to the skillet and stir-fry until they are lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
Let the sprouts sit for a moment before stirring to achieve a nice caramelization.
Drizzle with sesame oil and toss to coat evenly before serving warm.
Adding sesame oil at the end enhances its flavor and aroma.
