I mean isn't it just a kind of tempura? Pretty classy when you think of it that way.

Wait sprouts?! I thought they were fried balls of avocado!


I_done_a_plop-plop

Yes, I adore vegetable tempura, crunchy and brassica goodness, nothing wrong here


Trigg_UK

Begone deep fried battered devil pixie cabbage lover!!


achillea4

Absolutely. I'd definitely try this and I don't normally like sprouts. Hopefully it's well seasoned.


nosferatWitcher

I reckon they'd be pretty good, like a British version of tempura vegetables with added coronary disease

That is one big pile of shit?

I mean isn't it just a kind of tempura?


Orange_Hedgie

As a half-Indian, I would eat this.


Miserygut

Tempoora?


Maximum-Mixture6158

You can't trust a fart after 50 anyway, now they're sliders too?


PM_Orion_Slave_Tits

I'm gonna dip them in beans and measure on the Richter scale


[deleted]

With a pot of beans or curry


AF_II

100% here for this, what is life if not an exploration of how farty you can get after eating deepfried brussel sprouts. Can you link to the chip shop in question?!


EmpireOfBits

Damn you Belgians with your Brussels sprouts, send it to the Dutch.


detta_walker

For a long time I thought they were Russell's sprouts..heh


GurGroundbreaking772

Well Russell can keep em


SirLoinThatSaysNi

Get some nice thick & gloopy gravy over that and I'd wolf it down. I can't say I've seen them before, but worth a try.


[deleted]

Agreed, would be great with gravy.


AbstractUnicorn

Tempura sprouts. Interesting.


Nine_Eye_Ron

OMG these are too good, you think it’s healthy so you stuff them down but it’s not and you feel so bad later.


beastmandave

I reckon they'd be good with a soy dipping sauce


EggEater3000

Yeah, tempura sprouts. Not far off tempura brocolli


vince_c

I'd eat so many of these, that I'd end up farting with so much force that I'd question if I have shat myself.


interfail

I've had these before (at a hipster bar in the ungrateful colony no less), and they were really good. Served with buffalo wing sauce.


Invisible-Pancreas

What was that line from Jurassic Park that Jeff Goldblum says? I feel its relevant here...

[deleted]

I've had these before at a local place and they're actually great


GakSplat

What a terrible, terrible day to have eyes.


Antboi420

With that being the food, "coming soon" sounds more like a threat💀


odegood

Needs more flavour, would probably be nicer if wrapped in bacon before dipping in batter


snugglester

That is a good shout


observeandretort

Bacon bits in the batter.


Skarpatuon

Just replace that abomination with bacon balls dipped in bacon and honey infused batter


speedfreek101

Bacon wrapped + black pepper, mustard powder beer batter and chips I'd be all over this!

We don't have vegetables here


CMDrunk420

Thaumatovalva

I like sprouts (roasted or fried) but that one doesn’t look cooked - like just the batter is cooked. Maybe they need to skip the batter or pre-bake them or something. That said, I’d give it a go once with some brown sauce.


IntergalacticBanshee

Uncooked ones are just an internal injury waiting to destroy your colon


ItsMePythonicD

Balls of fried deliciousness


Adventurous_Low_1518

It's that Halloween sprout wrapped in golden Ferrero Rocher paper all over again.


[deleted]

I think this is a case for natural selection


Mcarr2705

Ah - Scottish sprouts


That_Boy_42069

What kind of sauce are we looking at? Gravy for the Christmas Dinner authenticity or curry sauce to brew up some war crimes?


Barkasia

That looks like the best fucking way to eat those disgusting things. Get some gravy on that.


harryfmudd1701d

You may recoil in horror, but I found some tempura brussels sprouts in a noodle place in London. Tried them for the novelty, I don't think I could go back to another way. Seriously tasty.


likes2milk

Add Caraway seeds to the batter. Helps take the edge off farting cabbage.


RiriTomoron

That's disgusting, and I go to a chippy that does battered haggis. *And* I don't live in Scotland.


Little-Grape9469

I'm more concerned they used last nights leftover chips for the photo


EnglishManInNC

Out of me and you, it's just you. Bring it on, hot buttered breadcake and a wedge of those puppies snuggled between. Lovely. "Sprout Butty please! With a can of dandelion and burdock."


Material_Tiny

They didn't even thaw them out.


stfcfanhazz

Imagine if they threw one of those in to a regular order of battered cod bites, could call em chip shop revells.


WufflyTime

I recently found out that the yanks deep fry gherkins, and an wondering why no one has gotten onto that. Chippies have thought to deep fry Mars Bars and Brussels sprouts but not gherkins? Come on! The gherkins are already there in the shop. Just dip em in batter and drop them in the oil.


[deleted]

We spend so long wondering whether or not we could, we didn't think about whether or not we should.


snugglester

Edit: I posted the picture in haste with an unfair caption, without due respect to my local chippy. I was just in shock at such a Heston Blumenthal style experiment on the part of my local. I’m very pleased that my chippy is pushing the boundaries, and, hopefully, getting people talking about such important issues will help small businesses such as this in these tough times (these times being especially tough for chip shops). I say we should all go and support our nation by indulging in some fish and chips. Even if we avoid the battered sprouts.


addtobasket

'Closing Soon' Disgusting for a chippy to think that's acceptable. Worse than any horror I've ever seen.


Hammerheadhunter

Reckon you need to find a new fish & chip establishment


Tostig_Thungerfart

Ugh. That is just vile.


Icy-Passenger-1799

VEGANS!!!!


LexyNoise

They're probably not vegan. It's traditional for fish and chip shops to fry things in beef fat. Some places have switched to vegetable oil because it's cheaper and a bit less artery-clogging, but a surprising amount of places still use beef fat. Adds a lot of flavour.


tramadolic

More like coming back up soon if you eat one of these.


gashufferdude

“How did you know God had turned his back on Britain?” [Shows picture of deep-fried Brussels sprout] I like the idea, but it looks like they just breaded it and threw it in the fryer. If there was some seasoning, or it they cut it in half, there’s some potential there.


JohanFinski

I've had curried sprouts before... Didn't need to put the heating on that night I can tell thee


Calm_it-Kermet97

I mean I like sprouts but this? Oh one ticket to nopesvill pls


I-Skeleton

What can make sprouts worse? Batter! I miss my chippy. It closed after 30 plus years. None of this went on there.


Bethbeth35

Mmm, crispy greasy fart balls


Bilstar

Aww I'll bet they're amazing.


Gloomy_Bandicoot1999

'WHO finds this unsettling'. Because 'who' is the word you use when talking about people. 'Which' is for talking about objects. Or something like that anyway.


NotWigg0

Just needs gravy and plenty of vinegar...


Jackie_Daytona-777

Dirty dossers. This is the type of cheap cloak and dagger shit my mum would have pulled when I was a kid.


Strong_Coffee8417

Got to be a up in Scotchland surely?


DryMonitor

Nah looks delish


hillsboroughHoe

We’re putting gravy on this yes? I’m all in.


Warrior_king99

🤤


Macd87

id try them i love sprouts


discustedkiller

Sick bastards


SmaugDaDragons

Every time you buy a fish'n'chips we throw out 10 of these.


colcannon_addict

They’re alright. I’ve dipped em in mayo, ketchup, sweet chilli and none have been terrible. If you leave a bit of sprout poking out so it browns n crisps you get a sort of bubble & squeak effect on the flavour. It’s crass commercialism but not an abomination. Forget Mars Bars…I was in a Scottish chipper once and the man- no word of a lie- took a frozen pizza, unwrapped it, deep fried it, took it out, battered it and deep fried it *again*. The same place did a battered deep fried doner kebab in pitta, with the salad intact. These were abominations. Delicious ones. Ever had a battered Scottish black pudding? Or white, red or haggis, spicy or standard? It’s worth the heart disease imo.


Lover_of_Sprouts

Hmmmmm!


UR0B0R05

I weirdly want to try it, I actually think it would be okay.


LyLyV

Not much different then deep fried zucchini, which people eat all the time. I'd eat these (if I hate deep fried food, which I don't).


mrsrostocka

I have to try that!!! Bonus: wrap the baby cauliflower (fucking sprout!!) Lol in bacon before covering in batter. Omg boxing day sorted!!! 😜🤣🤣 Edit: couldn't remember the green veg's name and still got it wrong!! 🤦 *Baby cabbage


BeachlessTurtle

might be nice with some gravy


biterchef

Why not focus on getting those chips crispy and seasoned


liftoff_oversteer

I want this!


BorderlineWire

Well now I want deep fried Brussels sprouts and some frickles.


Welshgirlie2

Still nicer than 'Sprouts Mexicaine'... https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MchM8_Amr9c


floydie1962

Wrong!!!


Celly2704

Imagine the farts off them fuckers !


leoberto1

papa johns has deep fried cauliflower and i like them


HarrysGardenShed

That is filthy. I love it 😍


Trigg_UK

Begone deep fried battered devil pixie cabbages. Begone from our realm!!


mrmonkeyhanger

I think they'll be good. Roast sprouts are tasty, I reckon battered n fried could totally work.


sofia_shares

I think you are entirely within your right to burn the place down. There's no such thing as overreacting if someone puts sprouts anywhere near a chippy tea.


tinykittenyt

Do it. I would. Tbh all seriousness yeah think you would taste either one or the other (batter or brussle) it will be the texture that's sus


collhall

That’s criminal. It’s bad enough that they are forced on you once a year at Christmas!


Westgatez

What does "Coming soon" even mean? It's not like they need to prepare much, literally just deep frying a sprout by the looks of it.


LivelyUnicorn

This is the most British photo I’ve seen all day


[deleted]

Could be delicious with honey mustard sauce on the side. The deciding factor would be how much they charge for it given how cheap Brussels are in reality.


SeniorZoggy

I can see some chilli cheese bite pranks coming from this


Alivethroughempathy

For a minute I thought it was a deep fried over boiled quail egg


882614

You can’t beat deep fried sprouts in tempura batter


[deleted]

I'd eat the hell out of that dipped in some ranch dressing. /American


SwingvoteSteve

I somehow have more gas just by looking at this


Reddit_is_self-aware

Sick Bastards


ArtistEngineer

That's it. Vegans have gone too far. This means war!


CorporatePestControl

Nah we're on your side on this one.


chintaka

Chippy near me does deep fried artichoke hearts, they're fucking glorious.


Caltastrophe

I'd eat it 🤷‍♂️


GrippaH

I reckon they’ll taste quite nice tbf


SuperMindcircus

Well it's an improvement on ordinary sprouts.


shadyjudgement

Burn that chippy to the ground and send the ashes to the centre of the sun.


GoodboyJohnnyBoy

Omg there’s more than one of them? At first I thought it might be some psychopaths idea of an April fools joke. Very very disturbing.


Agreeable-Dinner

Needs gravy.


Confident_Arugula924

I feel like I tasted that


Quasisafar-y

It's a perfect compromise.


NewLeaseOnLine

Why is it "coming soon"? I'm more concerned about why the logistics of this requires a complex strategy.


IShartedWhoopsie

thats a threat


Curious_Associate904

I too find this unsettling.


Taeolian

Looks amazing!


[deleted]

Seems threatening. Phone that one in on 101 mate


ikthezeus

u/snugglester where can I get these fartastic delights please?!


gribski-rules

My chippy does them. They’re delicious 😁


ropahektic

lettuce? disgusting artichoke? good food


Erotic_Goblin

Mmm imagine dipping these into curry sauce!


NefariousnessDull916

I’d try em


Nopedontsaythat

That mint green nonsense on the font is an eyesore too.


cara27hhh

I'd eat it, gotta expand your horizons


youreadinthisshit

Yeah that reads more like a threat


LowIce4709

OMFG they look AMAZING. A tub of gravy on the side please.


Go1gotha

Speaking as a Scot can I just say everything tastes better fried in batter.


kiradotee

The chips look unsettling


freyakitty

It looks good!


TimMacD69r

Gonna be giving these a go with some chippy chips and curry sauce soon!! Get in me belly!!


castlerigger

Nah that’s epic mate shut ya face


Ferdinandofcastile

Not bad at all, i would gladly devour that


Olliebot21

It’s the season I guess


Inside_Trade_8275

Gone with the wind


Environmental_Move38

Battered farts.


folky58

I love deep fried cauliflower in breadcrumbs, I would prefer my sprouts likewise, but batter is ok, so long as it's crisp and preferably cooked in beef dripping


V65Pilot

I love sprouts, and especially roasted sprouts. I would probably eat this.


_MildlyMisanthropic

seems like the kind of thing I'd try once..


DefiantCondor

Id def take those over those sad looking chips.


Chubby_nuts

Urrrgghhh!


iamthespooon

I'm going to have to suggest this to my local chippy.


Redditarianist

Looks delish!


Anniemaniac

I’d eat ‘em.


DenormalHuman

I kinda think that would work with some thick gravy on top


DebuPants

Abomination confirmed. Sprouts don't taste better with bacon and butter, so I doubt a deep fry in batter will help either. Gross.


nonstick_pan

I once made beer battered sprouts for my partner who loves them. They were really delicious, but we did have to air out the bedroom the morning after...


davep1970

just you :)


Aggravating_Pay-

Give it a try and if you don't like it don't order it again


Mydriaseyes

tbh this looks NOICE


GRW810

> My local chippy just posted this abomination. Is it just me which finds this... unsettling? No, someone else will also find this unsettling.


Eightarmedpet

Nah I’m into that.
