Steps

1

Cut the sprouts in half, blanch for 2 minutes in boiling salted water, drain and place in roasting dish. Add the cardamom pods and the bacon lardons to the dish.

In a small pan, melt the butter, add the allspice, a bit of the olive oil and chestnut puree stirring so as not to burn the butter. Turn off the heat and set aside. This is a basic chestnut butter (see photo) which can be used in a variety of ways.
