Ingredients Needed
- 675g / 1½ lb Brussels sprouts
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- ¾ tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
How To Make Roasted Brussels Sprouts
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 200°C (fan 180°C) / 400°F / Gas Mark 6.
- Prepare the sprouts: Trim the ends off the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellow or loose outer leaves.
- Season well: Toss the sprouts in a large bowl with the olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Roast until golden: Spread them out in a single layer on a baking tray and roast for 35–40 minutes, shaking the tray occasionally to brown evenly.
- Add a final touch: Once crisp on the outside and tender inside, sprinkle with extra kosher salt before serving.

Recipe Tips
- Choose uniform sprouts: Selecting Brussels sprouts of similar size ensures even roasting.
- Dry thoroughly before roasting: Removing excess moisture helps achieve a crisp exterior.
- Preheat the baking sheet: Placing sprouts on a hot sheet jumpstarts the roasting process for better caramelization.
- Avoid overcrowding: Spacing sprouts properly prevents steaming and promotes crispiness.
- Toss halfway through cooking: This ensures even browning on all sides.
How To Store & Reheat Leftovers
- Refrigerate: Allow the roasted Brussels sprouts to cool to room temperature. Place them in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 4 days.
- Reheating: To reheat, spread the sprouts on a baking sheet and warm in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F) for 5–7 minutes until hot and crispy.
