1 heaped tsp Wholegrain Mustard

Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Remove the sprouts, chestnuts from their packing and add them to a 30cm oven proof dish, pick out the knobs of butter from the and add them to a medium saucepan. Season the sprouts with salt and pepper and drizzle a little olive oil over them. Cook the sprouts in the oven for 15 minutes until softened and starting to crisp at the edges.

Peel the shallots and garlic and finely chop then add them to the saucepan, reserving 1 clove of garlic for your topping. Cook on a medium heat for 5 minutes until softened, add the flour and stir over the heat for a minute or so, then gradually add the milk, stirring all the time, then stir in the mustard and a good grating of nutmeg. Bring up to a simmer and cook for 5 mins until thickened and coating the back of your spoon. Grate the cheese and stir most of it into the sauce. Pour the sauce over the roasted sprouts.

Blitz the bread and remaining clove of garlic and a good grating of nutmeg in a food processor. Sprinkle over the sprouts with the remaining cheese and bake in the oven for a further 20 mins until bubbling and golden.
