Ingredients:

Serving

canola oil , for deep frying
1 garlic clove, minced
4 salt-packed anchovy fillets, rinsed, filleted, and minced
1 serrano chili, seeded and minced
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 tbsp honey
2 scallions, white and green parts , thinly sliced on the bias
1/2 cup walnut pieces, toasted and coarsely chopped
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 lb brussels sprout, trimmed and quartered lengthwise
2 cups loosely packed fresh flat leaf parsley
2 tbsp salt-packed capers, rinsed and patted dry
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper

Directions:

Pour enough oil into a medium pot so that the oil comes 3 inches up the sides. heat the oil to 350°F (175°C).
While the oil is heating, whisk together the garlic, anchovies, serrano chile, red wine vinegar, honey, scallions, walnuts, and extra-virgin olive oil in a bowl large enough to toss all the Brussels sprouts. Keep the bowl near the stovetop.
Working in batches, deep-fry the Brussels sprouts until the edges begin to curl and brown, about 3 minutes. To the last batch, add the parsley and capers. (Stand back—the capers will pop and sputter!) Give the contents of the pot a stir. When the color of the parsley becomes a deeper, more saturated shade of green, about 1/2 to 1 minute, remove the contents of the pot with a skimmer and place directly into the bowl of dressing. Toss to coat. Add salt and pepper to taste.
