Hashed Brussels Sprouts with Lemon

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp. freshly squeezed lemon juice, or more to taste 
  • Grated zest of 1 lemon
  • 2 to 3-pounds brussels sprouts
  • 2 tbsp. olive oil
  • 2 tbsp. butter
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp. black mustard seeds, cumin seeds or poppy seeds
  • ¼ cup dry white wine or vermouth
  •  Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

  • Place lemon juice in a large bowl.
  • Cut bottoms off sprouts and discard.
  • Working in batches, use a food processor fitted with the slicing blade to cut sprouts into thin slices; if cutting by hand, halve sprouts lengthwise, and thinly slice them crosswise; the slices toward the stem end should be thinner, to help pieces cook evenly.
  • As you work, transfer slices into bowl with lemon juice.
  • When all sprouts are sliced, toss them in juice and use your fingers to separate leaves.
  • Recipe can be prepared to this point and refrigerated, covered, for up to 3 hours.
  • When ready to serve, using a skillet large enough to hold all sprouts, set to high heat, add mustard seeds; wait a few seconds until they pop.
  • Once seeds have popped, add butter, sprouts and garlic; cook, stirring often, until sprouts are wilted and lightly cooked, but still bright green and crisp; about 4 minutes.
  • Some leaves may brown slightly.
  • Add wine and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Cook, stirring, 1 minute more.
  • Turn off heat, add salt and pepper to taste, and more lemon juice if desired.
  • Stir in the lemon zest, reserving a little for top of dish.
  • Transfer to a serving bowl; sprinkle with remaining zest and serve.
