BRUSSELS SPROUTS
- 453 g Brussels Sprouts (halved)
- 15-30 ml olive oil
- 1 pinch each sea salt + black pepper
SAUCE + PASTA
- 45 ml olive oil or vegan butter
- 12 g cloves garlic, chopped (yields ~3 Tbsp as original recipe is written)
- 80 ml dry white wine (Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, + Sauvignon Blanc, are best)
- 32 g arrowroot starch (or cornstarch)
- 420 ml unsweetened plain almond milk
- 15 g nutritional yeast
- Sea salt + black pepper to taste
- 20 g parmesan cheese (vegan if you are plant-based)
- 280 g pasta
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (204 C) and add Brussels sprouts to a baking sheet (use more baking sheets, as needed, if increasing batch size). Drizzle with oil, and season generously with salt and pepper and toss. Arrange in a single layer and set aside.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil (for cooking the pasta) and salt generously (~1 Tbsp). Set aside while preparing sauce.
- Heat a large rimmed skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add oil and garlic. Sauté for 3 minutes or until fragrant and very slightly golden brown, then add wine (see photo). Be careful – it may flame, but only briefly. Stir and sauté for 2-4 minutes, or until the wine has reduced by about half.
