2 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons sriracha or sambal oelek (in Asian markets and some supermarkets)
1 tablespoon sesame oil

Steps:

1.In a blender, combine all the vinaigrette ingredients. Blend until smooth; set aside. 2.In a large sauté pan over medium-low heat, heat the vegetable oil and butter until it foams. Add sprouts and sauté until bright green and tender, about 15 minutes. Season lightly with salt and pepper. 3.Add about half the vinaigrette, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, mixing lightly but thoroughly. Taste. If needed, add more vinaigrette; it may not all be needed. 4.Spread the yogurt thinly over a serving plate, and mound the brussels sprouts on top. Dot with crumbled honeycomb, and garnish with shiso and fried shallots (if using).
