Books & Spoons Recipe Parmesan Crusted Deep Fried Brussels Sprouts

Every now and then an idea that you have about a recipe works even better than you originally thought, and you completely fall in love with the taste of the dish. Yes?!  Absolutely. 

The dinner that made me want seconds and was even better than I first thought was Parmesan crusted deep fried brussels sprouts with marinara and whole grain pasta. Oh yes,  I don't often advocate anything deep fried, but this is a recipe I hope you try. 
Make sure the brussels sprouts are washed and well dried. You can use frozen ones as well, just make sure the are dry on the outside and remember they might take longer to fry if still frozen inside.

For the breading, I used for 12 brussels sprouts, 
1/2 cup of shredded Parmesan
1/4 cup bread crumbs
dash of dried garlic powder
thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper to taste

1. Dry the brussels sprouts out
2. Dip the brussels sprouts into the whisked egg
3. Roll the brussels sprouts in the breading
4. Deep fry until golden 
5. Serve with pasta & marinara

I think these would also make a great snack as well while watching a game or just for the fun of it. I fell in love with them, and I know they will be stable in my household from now on. 
Hope you all get as big of a kick out of them as I did.
