Honey Miso Brussels + Steak
Caramelised Brussels sprouts, a sweet-salty miso dressing, and a perfectly grilled steak on top. Salad that actually wants to be the main event.
Serves: 4
Prep time: 20 minutes
Cook time: 25 minutes
INGREDIENTS
450g Brussels sprouts, sliced or wedged
3 tbsp lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp miso paste
3 tbsp oil
1 cup walnuts
4 steaks
dry herbs and spices, for seasoning
rocket leaves, to serve
mustard sprouts, to garnish
For the dressing:
3 tbsp lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
2 tbsp honey
1/4 cup olive oil
salt, for seasoning
METHOD
Preheat the oven to 220°C.
In a bowl, mix the lemon juice, garlic, honey, miso paste and oil. Toss the Brussels sprouts through the mixture.
Roast the Brussels sprouts in the hot oven until caramelised and golden. Remove and set aside to cool slightly.
Meanwhile, roast the walnuts in a dry pan until golden and slightly oily. Cool, then crush to a textured consistency.
For the dressing, blend the lemon juice, garlic, Dijon mustard, honey and a pinch of salt. With the blender running, slowly add the olive oil until combined.
Season the steaks with your choice of dry herbs and spices, then grill to your preferred doneness. Rest before slicing.
To assemble, arrange the rocket leaves on plates. Top with the roasted Brussels sprouts, then scatter over the crushed walnuts.
Slice the rested steak and arrange over the top.
Garnish with mustard sprouts and drizzle generously with the dressing.
HINTS
Roast the Brussels sprouts cut-side down for the best caramelisation on the flat edges.
Toast the walnuts just until fragrant - they go from golden to burnt quickly.
This dressing keeps well in the fridge for a few days, so make a double batch if you're using it again that week.
