Introduction
Jamie Oliver’s Squashed Brussels Roasted with Chorizo & Chestnuts recipe from his book, Jamie Oliver’s Christmas Cookbook.
Ingredients
| 1kg | of Brussels sprouts |
| 150g | raw higher-welfare chorizo |
| 1 tbsp | olive oil |
| 100g | vac-packed chestnuts |
| 2 sprigs | of fresh rosemary |
| 1 tbsp | sherry vinegar |
Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4. Wash and trim 1kg of Brussels sprouts, clicking off any tatty outer leaves. Cook for 8 minutes in a pan of boiling salted water, then drain well. Squeeze 150g of raw higher-welfare chorizo out of its skin, crumbling it into a roasting tray with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. On the hob, fry over a medium heat for 6 minutes, until you have ruby oil, then crumble in 100g of vac-packed chestnuts, strip in the leaves from 2 sprigs of fresh rosemary and shake about. Tip in the sprouts and toss in 1 tablespoon of sherry vinegar. Squash and flatten the sprouts with a potato masher so they suck up more flavour. Roast for 25 minutes, or until starting to colour. Season to perfection, bang out and serve.
