While on vacation in South Africa, we also tried this dish. Everywhere serves it, but it’s not always simple to locate a nice version of it. In South Africa, Peri Peri powder is used in place of cayenne pepper. If the dish isn’t hot enough, it falls flat for me.

Easy to prepare with ingredients I normally have on hand. I used frozen Brussels Sprouts that I defrosted and drained off any excess moisture. Beautiful balance of flavors. Everyone loved it.
Absolutely yummy. I will definitely make this again. I served it with some baked fish and it was a great complement to the very flavourful Brussels sprouts.
I added some smoked turkey pastrami cubes with cracked pepper.
No changes and Yes I will make it again!

Did not add apples but added bacon bits . It was really popular
Sooo good! Everyone loved it and my niece asked to take the leftovers home. I sliced my sprouts lengthwise before tossing them with apples and the balsamic/maple/olive oil dressing, then placed them cut side down on cookie sheet. Saved a tablespoon of marinade to toss the walnuts and cranberries before adding to the cooked sprouts and apples. Will make again!
This dish was amazing. I made it for a date and he also loved it. My adult daughter took some leftovers of it and loved it. I will definitely be making this on a regular basis. Yummy!
We loved these. Made with no changes. Next time I’ll marinate longer.
I was not sure about this dish because Brussels sprouts are not my favourite, but was I glad I tried it! I followed the recipe but substituted pecans for the walnuts, and it was so good. I will definitely be making this again. #Allrecipesallstarscanada #CleanEats
Pretty good. Used pecans rather than walnuts by preference. The color combination makes a nice presentation, especially for the Christmas dinner table. I found it needed some salt. I liked the combination of ingredients and would use this recipe again.
