Brussel Sprouts are green vegetables which belong to the group of cabbages. They are rich in Vitamin and Folic acid. They are also considered as a cancer fighting food which also promote DNA repair in cells (source – Wikipedia). For me, they are mini cabbages. They look so cute and are exactly like tiny cabbages. This is a simple stir fry which can be cooked as an accompaniment to either rice or chapathi..If you are new to this vegetable, here is a beautiful video which explains how to trim brussel sprouts.
