Maple Syrup Stir-fried Brussels Sprouts

This recipe a Hot Thai Kitchen recipe, it’s a mix of Thai and Canadian staples, fish sauce and maple syrup.  As weird as this combination sounds, it’s the perfect balance of the umami from the fish sauce, and the maple syrup candying the Brussels sprouts.   Make it with a cast iron pan to give the Brussels sprouts a good char, it makes the sprouts the perfect texture, still a bit of the crunch, and softened just enough.
