1.  In a steamer set over boiling water, steam the Brussels sprouts, covered, for 6 minutes, or until they are just tender.  Pat dry with paper towels.

2.  Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 12 inch cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.  Add the sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 2 minutes.  Add the ginger and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 2 minutes.  Increase heat to high and add the remaining oil and the reserved Brussels sprouts; stir fry until Brussels sprouts are lightly browned and tender, about 3 minutes.
