Brown butter, gochujang and maple syrup meld together to form a sauce that is nutty, rich, sweet and spicy in all the right ways, but it can overwhelm lighter vegetables. Slather it over roasted Brussels sprouts, which can hold its own, and the result is a hearty vegetable side dish. Add sliced spring onion at the end for freshness.
