3 tsp. honey
1 tsp. sriracha sauce

2 tsp. yuzu juice
1⁄4 tsp. sesame oil
1 tsp. sesame seeds

3. Meanwhile, pour about 2 inches of oil into a 4-qt. pot and heat to 350°. Fry the sprouts in three batches, using the lid of the pot to protect your hands from popping oil. Cook for about 30 seconds or until the leaves are brown and crisp. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle with sea salt.

4. Once all batches are fried, transfer the chips to a bowl and drizzle some of the sauce over them. Toss lightly to coat and add more sauce i f needed. Serve immediately.
