Chuko’s Brussels Sprouts

It’s no secret that Brussels sprouts are experiencing a serious renaissance in New York City’s food scene.  We’re particularly partial to the Asian-inflected mini-cabbages found at the Brooklyn ramen house, Chuko.  Not your traditional sprouts, these are halved and deep fried before being tossed in a flavorful bath of fish sauce and soy, and liberally sprinkled with a salty/sweet combo of honey roasted peanuts and pickled peppers.
