This bubble & squeak with sprouts, bacon and potato needn't be relegated to leftovers – it makes a great alternative to roasties
Ingredients
- 1.25kg/2lb 12oz floury potatoes, peeled and cut into 3cm chunks
- 4 tbsp rapeseed oil
- 200g lardons or smoked bacon, cut into pieces
- 700g brussels sprouts
Method
-
Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Bring a pan of water to the boil, then tip in the potatoes. Cook for 4-5 mins, drain well, then return to the pan. Put on the lid and shake a couple times.
-
Set a heavy-bottomed roasting tin on the hob over a medium heat and add the oil. When it’s really hot, add the potatoes and fry for a few mins.
-
Add the bacon and brussels sprouts, mix everything together, then put in the oven and bake for 30 mins until the bacon is crisp and the sprouts are tender.
