We love these brussels sprouts fritters! They are golden, crunchy, crisp and flavorful, topped with parmesan and served with a sun dried tomato basil dipping sauce. Absolutely delicious and perfect as an appetizer or side dish!

Ingredients
- 4 cups shredded brussels sprouts, all stems removed
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup finely grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for topping
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 pinch red pepper flakes
- kosher salt and pepper
- 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil, for cooking
tomato basil dipping sauce
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons chopped sun dried tomatoes
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 4 or 5 fresh basil leaves, chopped
Instructions
- Place the shredded brussels in a microwave-safe bowl and add the two tablespoons of water. Cover the bowl and microwave for 2 minutes. This will soften and slightly steam the sprouts. If after 2 minutes, they are not a brighter shade of green and slightly softer, microwave in 1 minute increments until they are.
- Stir together the eggs, flour, cheese, garlic, pepper flakes and a big pinch of salt and pepper. Fold in the brussels sprouts until everything is combined. You should have a batter.
- Heat 1 tablespoons of olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, drop ½ cup scoops of the brussels mixture onto the pan - I do 3 or 4 fritters at a time. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side until deeply golden and crispy. Gently flip and crisp up the other side. Remove the brussels and place them on a paper towel lined plate or baking sheet.
- Repeat with remaining batter, adding a bit more olive oil as necessary. When finished, sprinkle parmesan all over the fritters.
- Serve immediately with the tomato basil dipping sauce.

- All the ingredients to a small blender or food processor. Blend until pureed. If you don’t want to blend, you can simply mix these ingredients together too and serve it as is.
