• 1 banana shallot or other shallot, peeled and sliced finely
• 50g of cooked chestnuts
• 1 tbsp of olive oil
• 1 tiny pinch of turmeric
• Salt, pepper

METHOD

1. Our chef recommends blanching the Brussels sprouts straight after prepping, so they stay very green. *Also don´t discard the outer leaves, the can be used at the end, or in a small salad.
2. In a sauté pan over medium heat, add the olive oil and the butter, when foaming the mix begins to bubble, add in the Brussel sprouts and the shallots and pan fry them gently until they obtain a lovely intense colour, about 3-5mins.
3. Next add the stock and cook over a low-medium heat until the sauce has reduced a little and just coats the vegetables. Add in the Smörgåsbord meatballs and fry gently, adding the chestnuts (slightly crushed), and a pinch of turmeric.
4. Season to taste, and serve.
