Sweet and savory Brussels sprouts recipe

0

This beautifully simple, light vegetable stew won’t leave you feeling tired and lethargic. Made from vegetables that grow close to the ground, this dish helps you feel calm and centered, strong and sure.

  • Yield: 3 Servings

Ingredients

  • 6 to 8 pearl onions or shallots, peeled and left whole
  • 10 to 12 small Brussels sprouts, left whole, stem ends trimmed
  • 6 to 8 unsweetened dried cherries, soaked for 15 minutes in warm water
  • ½ cup organic corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
  • Organic soy sauce, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon kuzu root or arrowroot powder, dissolved in a small amount of cold water
How to Make It
  1. In a deep saucepan, layer the onions, followed by the Brussels sprouts. Drain the cherries, reserving the soaking liquid, and add them to the pot. Top with the corn kernels. Pour in enough cherry soaking water to just cover the bottom of the pot. Sprinkle with the soy sauce, then cover and bring to a gentle boil over mediumlow heat.
  2. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the sprouts are tender, about 25 minutes. Season lightly with a little more soy sauce and simmer, covered, for 5 minutes more. Stir in the dissolved kuzu (or arrowroot) powder until a thin glaze forms over the veggies. Serve warm.
