Baked Parmesan Sprouts with Bacon – Sprouts coated with parmesan, then baked and topped with crispy bacon!

Prep Time: 10

Cook Time: 25

Total Time: 35

Servings: 4 Servings

Course: Sides

Cuisine: British

Ingredients

▢ 400 g (14 oz) sprouts
▢ 1 medium egg
▢ 1 tbsp cold water
▢ 75 g (3/4 cup) Parmesan cheese grated
▢ pinch salt and pepper
▢ 4 strips of fried/grilled bacon chopped into small pieces (I used smoked streaky bacon)
▢ 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 200C/400F (fan), and get a medium baking tray ready.
Peel the outer leaves from the sprouts, and chop the ends of the stalks off. Chop the sprouts in half.
400 g (14 oz) sprouts
Break the egg into a bowl and whisk together with the water.
1 medium egg, 1 tbsp cold water
Place the grated parmesan in another bowl.
75 g (3/4 cup) Parmesan cheese
Dip one of the sprout halves in the egg, then roll in the parmesan until fully coated. Place on the baking tray. Repeat with the rest of the sprouts.
pinch salt and pepper
Try to keep the sprouts on one layer – it's ok if they're a little tightly packed though.
Place in the oven for 15-20 minutes until golden.
Remove from the oven. Sprinkle on the cooked bacon and parsley, then serve.
