Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Brussels Sprouts
Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellow or damaged leaves. Rinse them under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel.
- 2
Make the Batter
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Gradually add water while whisking until a smooth batter forms. The batter should be thick enough to coat the Brussels sprouts.
Cooking
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to check the temperature.
- 4
Batter the Brussels Sprouts
Dip each Brussels sprout into the batter, ensuring it is completely coated.
- 5
Fry the Brussels Sprouts
Carefully place the battered Brussels sprouts into the hot oil, a few at a time to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 4-5 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate.
Serving

Garnish and Serve
Drizzle the fried Brussels sprouts with lemon juice, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately while hot.
