Angela Hartnett cooked this recipe for Nick Grimshaw and guest Hugh Bonneville on episode 12, season 2 of Dish, the Waitrose podcast. It was served with a main course of rosemary & black pepper brined wing rib of beef, plus this selection of delicious sides: potatoes dauphinoise, red cabbage & carrot slaw, maple-roast parsnips and carrots, and sticky pigs in blankets. Dessert was this mix-and-match tiramisu.

Ingredients

3 tbsp olive oil
150g bacon lardons
1 onion, finely chopped
800g Brussels sprouts
4 tbsp maple syrup

Method

Preheat the oven to 200ºC, gas mark 6. Put 1 tbsp of the olive oil in a large roasting tin and add the bacon lardons and onion. Stir to coat, then roast for 15 minutes.
Toss the sprouts in the remaining oil, then add to the roasting tin, return to the oven and roast for 30 minutes. Give the tin a good shake, then drizzle over the maple syrup.
Roast for a further 15 minutes until the sprouts are tender and lightly charred in places. Serve in a warmed serving dish.
