Almond Roasted Brussels // Air Fryer Recipes You Will Love 💗 // Southern Cooking

We are gonna make us some air fryer roasted brussels and boy, are they gonna be good. And then we're also gonna make us a little bit of fish and this is gonna be our lunch today. These are brussels that I have prepped already, cut the ends off and halved off. Now we're going to take my pull chopper and I am going to take some almonds and I'll use about that much, Lord mercy. Missed your hand, didn't you? Yes, just use about I guess about a quarter cup. I don't want to get them so little that well, I'll chop them just a little bit more. Well, I already took that out. How y'all like me alive? This crazy old woman. All right, wait a minute. Yeah, they got to be little enough to stick to the brussels, don't they? Yeah, when they're air frying. Yeah. All right, Tammy's gonna start her lawnmower. I can start this, I just can't pull a lawnmower cord, I can tell you that right now. All right, so let's throw them in there. Almonds. Already looks good, don't it? Sesame seeds, I guess I could have tossed them in oil first. Let's do let's do the oil next. Oil. This is olive oil. You know what? I'm not I'm just gonna throw it all in there and then we're gonna toss it. We'll do salt and pepper last. So that's sesame seeds. This is toasted sesames. Yeah, you did get the toasted ones. Now Toasted sesame seed. I've got some parm and I don't have any of the fresh kind so this is what we have and that's what we're using and You're just you know Putting it on there. You don't have to have a specific amount. The only thing I haven't done is I'm gonna add some shallots. Now you can use dehydrated onion or onion powder if you don't have these. These are from Kinsey's and they're just called air dried shallots, and they're just really good and they have a really strong Flavor and they're just good. Okay, so I'm gonna throw those on there and it's really nice to have shallots like this I will say this I don't represent Kinsey's or anything like that. I use all the spices no matter who they are If I like them, but I was gonna tell you it's nice to have dried shallots because I can never keep them fresh You know, they go bad before I use them or but it's nice to have them dried Then you can just pull them out whenever you want to use them And I think that's it besides salt and pepper, so we're just gonna toss this I guess instead of clay in it, I'll use some wood If I use my metal on metal it drives some people crazy when they watch the show So we're just gonna toss all of this together. So there's almonds. Let's put a little more olive oil You gotta have a lot of olive oil for it to stick to it. Okay All this good stuff, so you've got the almonds you've got the cheese you've got the sesames And those are actually roasted almonds whole almonds that we just chopped And then you've got the shallots and now all we're going to do is salt and pepper it and I'm gonna do that When it's in the air fryer itself Now a lot of y'all are telling me about air fryer liners. So I thought I'd bring this up Air fryers were not Invented to use a liner in there's a whole reason why it's called the air fryer the air really needs to circulate all around the food and When you put a liner in there, it really only gets to get the top part of the food So I will never use you'll never see me use an air fryer liner. They're nonstick on the inside They're easy to clean. So to me, I just thought I'd tell you guys that Yeah blocks all those holes in there, don't it? Oh, yes I mean, that's the whole point and it having the holes in there and so you don't want to block that now I'm gonna spray this a little bit even if it's nonstick I'm gonna spray this a little bit with some olive oil Because it never hurts Easy clean up is fun makes it more fun. All right, so we're gonna get these Brussels in here Look how easy this was now if for some reason you're a bacon lover and you got some bacon bits That you've got, you know, you've had some extra bacon and you got some we actually have some in the Refrigerator But I'm not gonna get them out because me and Chris are not that crazy about bacon all over everything But you could always add it in there if that's what you like But to me, this is gonna be a lot of flavor They asked a Lot of people we use a seasoning that has everything in it kind of like everything bagel But I'm gonna be honest with you some of the onions and the everything bagel. They're just they just don't taste that good so I Would prefer you use Other spices. I'm I've used the everything bagel spice once it's cool what brand you buy to how good it is All right, so we're gonna put this in there And we're gonna put the temperature on 360 370. Oh 370 for 8 to 10 minutes, so we're gonna just check it in 8 minutes. All right I'll hit the start button and while that's doing this thing We're gonna make some fish Now this fish is what is this Chris trout trout speckled trout speckled trout? Yet another skillet y'all are gonna I drive y'all crazy with buying stuff But I went to all these outlet and I found this volcano skillet Some people hate them. Some people love them Never put a nonstick skillet Even the Vikings that I had we put them in the dishwasher and eventually they just don't work good as much as they cost So I thought I was gonna try out this tornado. I'm not putting it in the dishwasher. I'm not putting anything else It's not stick in my dishwasher. I don't put my air fryer in the dishwasher But we're gonna see how this thing works You can get on my Always outlet. I don't know where all they sell sell them But I'll link it to Amazon because I do know they sell them on Amazon and it's an affordable skillet But if you want to wait a few weeks and see how much I like it, that would be wise Tammy don't like to baby anything. That's you know, so You don't baby skillets Man, it got hot really quick. Oh, yeah, which is a good thing. Well, it was already on Well, I'm just saying though that the heat. Oh, yeah Yeah, looks good. I will say that I can already tell that And I'm gonna season these once I get them in here this butter that way the seasoning sticks a little better That brown butter tastes good too So I'm gonna flip them over before I season them so that the seasoning will stick to them good Then we'll flip them one more time Cooking good All right, we're gonna use my garlic and onion the gourmet collection spice blend. You can get it at home goods you can get it at Marshalls, Bales or on our website under spices spice spice rack Shop now, I'm gonna grab a set of lemon Slice that sucker up And if you want the plate to be really pretty when you're serving it, you can slice just a little Got a seed on there a real thin slice of lemon Before you squeeze it just to make your plate pretty if you want to If you're on YouTube Oh, yeah, that's true Especially me and I don't know why but when men cook I think they got to have everything just beautiful But now we can curl it Actually, I did that wrong. I was only supposed to cut it once Y'all I am NOT in my egg game today Let me show you how to do that again you slice one slice Lost my mind And you only make one slit and then you can curl it except you need to Make a day anyway Good salt pepper on that Now y'all know fish only needs to cook like three minutes on the side so that You don't over cook Salt pepper it but now that Does yes, I'm gonna squeeze a little lemon in it while it's cooking and then I'll squeeze some on it when it comes out Okay. Okay. I Think I'm gonna flip it first though May have to get out my fish spatula. This is not steak Getting a nice little crust on it, ain't it? and if you wanted to you could throw some papers on it, but Chris said he wasn't in the mood for them today Looks good, smells good Put the timer on it. How long did it on there about? Yeah, they've been on there at least a minute. Hadn't they flipped over? Driving me crazy because I did this wrong. Really? Yes Driving me nuts. You're supposed to slice it thin and it has to be equal all the way around It can't be like fat. It's because I got this little knife out. Yeah, you can use a bigger knife. See and you can curl it. There it goes. Look at that. But anyway, keep messing with it Or you can just throw a big old slice of lemon on it. It's pretty just cause it's lemon, ain't it? Yes There's a little slice Well, anyway, it's gonna taste good. Oh, yeah, we need to shake these. Oh, do we? Yeah, they're down to the last two minutes. You're not paying attention They sure ain't done. I'll tell you that Take them up girl. And I think they need more oil on them. We can spray them No Boy they smell good, don't they? Mm-hmm Delish See I think they should be up a little higher because I like them round. Yeah Can I turn them up? Yeah, good to cook All right, so I put that on 370 for how many minutes to start with? Eight, so it cooked six Eight, so now I'm gonna put it on 400 for six minutes. I won't cook it the whole six minutes though. Okay All right, I think this is done Done daddy, done. All right, so let me clean up my mess right here. We're gonna make us a plate These are amazing and they chop stuff really well. You want me to get that out of that pan for you? Yeah, I don't want my fish to be. Okay When he starts giving me hand signs Stuff Yeah, look how pretty that is. I want to flip it and see what the other side looks like, can I? Or you don't want me to? I mean, do what you want to do Gonna be pretty Pretty? Yeah, perfect Come here to me I'll just get it on. I'll give you two fat ones Okay, I guess we're going to take a picture of mine because I bested yours up I'm just gonna roll mine out. That way it'll look good Pretty, look at that. Look at there how pretty those are Hmm get the butter out of there y'all So far so good Yeah, when they're new they really seem to do good. All right, so these brussels Um, I only have a couple of more minutes and then we can eat I can pick this stuff up real quick Sniff a little pinch of this fish Mmm And what do you taste of that? We hadn't done it. You want more lemon on it? No, that's fine. You sure? Well, I mean we could taste it before you put any more lemon on it But that lemon will go really good with that garlic And of course if you got fresh garlic, you can always Cook it in that fresh garlic I don't think it would hurt to put a little lemon on our brussels. No, it wouldn't. It'd be good. All of it. We got tons of lemons from our neighbors. I got a whole drawer full of lemons. We got a million lemons Because the lemons come in this time of year. Well, they come in around Thanksgiving, Christmas season Look like now. Oh, yeah. Now that's more like it. Yeah, I don't like them to be too brown So just put them on that higher setting long enough to get them nice and toasty But you don't want to get them too brown or they'll taste burnt And I'm gonna squeeze some lemon on them We're gonna get them on the plate. Talk to me. That's your timer. My husband's always setting the timers So you think they should cook it on 400 the whole time or do you think they should do like, oh no, it's 380 Or maybe in the middle. Oh, so kind of do it like we did it. I would do it half and half just like we do our bacon. Yeah And that way you're getting The best of both worlds you want them down low enough to cook on the inside We're having a lot y'all because this is our lunch and we're not eating, you know more sides So we're gonna be hogs With the brussels, which is good for you, so get the almonds in here Simple lunch quick fast and easy Chris has got lots of almonds on his. Mine does too. All right, let's get us a bite I'm gonna taste off Chris's plate so I can take a picture of mine when we're done There's our flaky fish, let me open it up so y'all can see the inside of it. See how pretty it looks And Chris, he catches all this fish down here. So we live on the coast of Georgia if you didn't know Let's try a brussel Those nuts are good. Yeah, I think we should put a little parm on them Yeah, I know that they're on the plate because it's hot They're nice and hot And you know if you don't have parm and you got feta you can use feta They're really really good. If you like brussels sprouts and you got an air fryer, I would use it Mmm, they're perfectly cooked You want them soft? Enough that you can chew it. Oh They're really good and you want them toasty on the outside These are packed with flavor got more than one texture It's just a really good lunch and we're gonna let you go so Chris can eat it Y'all have a wonderful day and we thank you so much for watching Collard Valley Cooks Where we learn to use an air fryer that our mama didn't have
