I can’t believe Thanksgiving is next week! I am not ready at all. November has been a terrible month so far. I am totally drained and really wasn’t in the cooking/baking mood. After struggling a little, I finally pulled myself together and made this awesome Brussels sprouts side dish.

Growing up, I have never seen or heard of Brussels sprouts. It was not a common vegetable in Hong Kong. It probably still isn’t nowadays. When I first saw them in the supermarkets in the US, I was thrilled. They look a lot like mini version of cabbages. They are totally adorable. However many people don’t like Brussels sprouts and think they are bitter. I think it is all about how you make them. If you do it right, they would taste just as fantastic as other vegetables.

These curried Brussels sprouts are roasted until dark golden brown. They are tender with some crispy leaves and edges. Then, they are tossed in curry powder. The curry powder is the best thing ever happened to Brussels sprouts. Aromatic, earthy, and flavorful. It also helps to cover up the bitterness of Brussels sprouts. Last sprinkle a bunch of dried cranberries over. The sweetness and tartness from the dried cranberries are perfect with the curry and Brussels sprouts. It’s such an easy dish and it can be done in 45 minutes. A side dish you and your guests will really love this Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! ❤❤❤

Ingredients

  • 1½  pounds Brussels sprouts (cut in half through the stem)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • salt
  • ground black pepper
  • 1½  teaspoons curry powder
  • ¼ cup dried cranberries

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400˚F (200˚C).
  • In a large bowl, add the cut Brussels sprouts. Toss with vegetable oil. Season with salt and pepper. Combine well. Transfer to a baking sheet and arrange them cut-side down. Cook in the oven for 25 minutes.
  • Remove the Brussels sprouts from oven and transfer back to the large bowl. Sprinkle with curry powder and toss with a spoon. Dump the Brussels sprouts back to the baking sheet. Cook in the oven for another 12 – 16 minutes, until they are tender and browned.
  • Transfer the Brussels sprouts to a large serving bowl. Sprinkle with dried cranberries. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Notes

  1. For storage, leftover can be kept in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  2. For crisper Brussels sprouts, cut them into quarters. They may not stay intact as well and won’t look as nice, but they sure are crisper.
  3. Different curry powder tastes differently. Some are more spicy and some are mild. My favorite brand is Sun Brands Madras Curry. It is mild in spiciness but very flavorful and fragrant.
  4. You can substitute the dried cranberries for raisins or any other dried berries.

    They are cute, aren’t they?! I always thought they looked like mini cabbages 😉 Personally, I think every Thanksgiving table needs brussels sprouts – and I’m loving the curry in this dish!

    How fun! I never thought to add curry powder to this little side dish and what a fab idea. I know my boys would love this. I have never seen brussel sprouts in the HK wet markets either. Glad you are finally able to try them.

      The curry powder is a nice addition. We enjoyed them a lot. I don’t think I have ever seen brussel sprouts in HK. I wonder whether they have them in HK at all. Sending you luck, so you can find them in HK.

    Oh, I am so on board with this curry (!!) roasted brussel sprouts. I never ate it growing up either and didn’t figure I’d like it until – of course – I tried it as an adult and now love it. That seems to be the case for many adults! I love the idea of adding curry powder – I love curry powder in everything. This looks like a must-try. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!

      Thanks Monica! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving too. I actually made these for Thanksgiving. We all enjoyed them very much. The curry powder perfectly flavors the brussel sprouts and doesn’t require much extra work. Easy breezy! 😀

      Thank you so much Amy! Yes, the cranberries were awesome in the brussel sprouts. I kept looking for them and I probably eat most of them. 😉

    Like you, I didn’t grow up having brussel sprouts and tried those just few years ago. I’m in love especially crispy baked brussel sprouts. And this one will be another favorite for sure!

This Vancouver trip, we spent most of our time in This Vancouver trip, we spent most of our time in Richmond, British Colombia. It’s the city where the airport is located & right next to Vancouver. There is a huge Chinese community, so there’re many traditional Chinese food. One of the most memorable for me has to be this char siu & roasted duck w/ rice. Char siu had the perfect balance of meat & fat. I also got the soup of the day. It was very comforting & I finished the whole bowl. The atmosphere, the people & the food reminded me of Hong Kong. I’ll definitely come back next time! 

Tips: Many restaurants & food stalls in Richmond only take cash.
