Roasted brussels sprouts with caraway seeds

Roasted Brussels sprouts are a delightful and healthy side dish that brings out the natural sweetness of the vegetable. By adding caraway seeds, you introduce a subtle earthy and nutty flavor that perfectly complements the Brussels sprouts. This simple yet flavorful recipe is perfect for any meal and is sure to be a hit at your dinner table.

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Brussels Sprouts:
- Trim the stem ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellow or damaged outer leaves.
- If they are large, cut them in half to ensure even roasting. Smaller ones can be left whole.
3. Season the Brussels Sprouts:
- In a large bowl, combine the Brussels sprouts with the olive oil, making sure they are well coated.
- Sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and mix again to distribute the seasoning evenly.
- Add the caraway seeds to the bowl and toss everything together until the seeds are evenly distributed among the Brussels sprouts.
4. Roast the Brussels Sprouts:
- Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Make sure they are not too crowded; this will help them cook more evenly and get crispy.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven.
5. Roasting Time:
- Roast the Brussels sprouts for about 20-25 minutes, stirring once halfway through the cooking time to ensure they brown evenly.
- Keep an eye on them towards the end to make sure they don't burn. They should be tender on the inside and golden brown and crispy on the outside.
6. Serve:
- Once roasted, remove from the oven and transfer to a serving dish.
- Optionally, you can add a final sprinkle of sea salt or a drizzle of balsamic glaze for extra flavor.

Tips:

- Trim the ends and remove any yellow or damaged outer leaves from the Brussels sprouts before roasting for the best texture and taste.

- Make sure the Brussels sprouts are evenly coated with olive oil and spices to ensure uniform roasting.

- Roast the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on the baking sheet to allow them to cook evenly and get a nice crispy texture.

- For an extra kick, consider sprinkling some freshly grated Parmesan cheese over the roasted Brussels sprouts before serving.

- If you prefer a touch of sweetness, drizzle some balsamic glaze over the Brussels sprouts after roasting.
