Type of dish: Side Dish

2 pounds Brussels sprouts
1/2 cup red wine
3 Tablespoons maple syrup
1 1/2 Tablespoons soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch

Trim the stems from the Brussels sprouts and cut an X into the base about 1/4″ deep.

In a small bowl, combine the wine, maple syrup, and soy sauce and stir together.

Transfer to a 3-quart saucepan along with 1/2 cup water and the Brussels sprouts. Stir together, then cook, covered, at a gentle summer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Uncover and cook, stirring occasionally, for another 10 minutes.

Dissolve the cornstarch in a small amount of water. Stir into the saucepan quickly, then cook for another 5 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a covered casserole dish to serve.
