Time

20 mins

Serves

8

Ingredients

  • 6 rashers of Field & Flower back bacon (smoked or unsmoked), chopped into cubes
  • Longmans Salted Butter Roll
  • 1kg Brussels sprouts

Instructions

  1. Prepare your sprouts by removing damaged or yellowing outer leaves. Cut off the bases of the sprouts to make them smooth, then cut a small cross into each base so they cook evenly.
  2. Add the prepared sprouts to a large pan of boiling water and cook for 5/6 minutes or until tender, but still with a little bite. Remove the pan from the heat and drain.
  3. In a frying pan or large saucepan cook the bacon pieces until golden brown and crispy.
  4. Add a knob of butter to the pan and let it melt. Take it off the heat and add the Brussels sprouts.
  5. Season and serve immediately.
