4. Roast:

Tips:

- Ensure the Brussels sprouts are evenly coated with olive oil before roasting to achieve a perfect crispy texture.

- For an extra flavor boost, you can add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or a dash of smoked paprika to the Brussels sprouts before roasting.

- If your tahini sauce is too thick, gradually add more water until you reach the desired consistency.

- For even cooking, spread the Brussels sprouts out in a single layer on the baking sheet without overcrowding.

- Consider adding a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of pomegranate seeds on top of the finished dish for added sweetness and color.
