This is a recipe that I got from pupswithchopsticks. It has only been changed minimally.
I cooked it on 13 April 2025, and was moderately happy with it. But I've come to the conclusion
that honey-soya glaze is not my thing. The idea of fried sprouts is good, but I need to
reconsider the sauce.

Preparation
Cut the onions finely, crush the garlic. Fry gently in a large pan capable of holding
the sprouts in a single layer.
Clean the sprouts, removing stems and loose outer leaves. Cut in halves and place in
the pan, flat side down.
The original recipe uses butter, not oil. That seems wrong to my taste.
The photos show my first attempt, where I cooked 500 g of sprouts. That required a
large (36 cm) pan, and the sprouts were browned unevenly. The quantity of glaze was
also better suited to 250 g of sprouts.
