Ingredients
- 500 g Brussels sprouts, cleaned well
- 2-3 tbsp pork fat
- 50 g finely sliced prosciutto
Instructions
1. Cut the Brussels sprouts in half through the stem.
2. Heat the pork fat in a large heavy-based frying pan over high heat. Add the Brussels sprouts, cut-side down and cook until starting to colour. Pop a lid on the pan at this stage and let them fry and steam in their own juices for about 2 minutes. They’re done when they’re dark brown on the cut side.
3. Remove from the pan, place on a plate and top with the strips of prosciutto.
