Ingredients
| 500g | waxy potatoes, peeled and cut into sprout-sized cubes |
|---|---|
| 600g | Brussels sprouts |
| 150g | light blue cheese, such as Cashel blue or Dorset blue, crumbled or chopped |
| 200ml | double cream |
| 200ml | full-fat milk |
| 1 tbsp | grain mustard |
| 50g | ground almonds |
| 75g | fresh white breadcrumbs |
| 30g | Parmesan cheese, freshly grated |
| salt and black pepper |
Method
Heat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4. Par-boil the potatoes in boiling salted water for 6–8 minutes until almost tender, adding the sprouts for the final 2 minutes of cooking. Drain and tumble into a well-buttered ovenproof dish.
In a jug, combine the blue cheese, cream, milk, mustard and almonds. Season well with salt and pepper. Pour the mixture evenly over the sprouts and potatoes.
Mix together the breadcrumbs and Parmesan and scatter over the top. Place in the heated oven and bake for 25–30 minutes until golden and bubbling. Serve hot.
