Instructions

Boil the Potatoes
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Pour enough oil into a deep baking tray to cover the bottom and pop into the oven. 

Bring a large saucepan of water with 1/2 tsp salt to the boil.

Peel and chop the potatoes into 4cm chunks. Boil the potatoes for 7-8 mins or until the edges are soft.

Add to the Oven
2

When ready, drain in a colander and sprinkle over some of the flour (2p: 20g, 3p: 30g, 4p: 40g).

Shake to fluff up the potatoes, then carefully add them to the hot baking tray, turning in the oil.

Season with salt, sprinkle over the dried rosemary, then roast on the top shelf until golden, 45-50 mins. Turn halfway through.

Serve in a large bowl.

Prep the Root Veg
3

Trim the carrots and parsnips, then halve lengthways (no need to peel). Chop into roughly 1cm wide, 5cm long batons.

Roast the Roots
4

Pop the carrots onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.

When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until tender, 20-25 mins. Turn halfway through.

Once roasted, drizzle over half the honey. Serve and finish by sprinkling over half the flaked almonds.

Prep the Sprouts
5

Trim the Brussels sprouts. Quarter them through the root, then pop them onto a baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.

When the oven is hot, roast on the middle shelf until browned and tender, 15-18 mins. Turn halfway through.

Bring on the Bacon
6

When the sprouts have 5 mins remaining, heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat.

Once hot, add the bacon lardons. Stir-fry until golden, 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook bacon thoroughly.

Mix in the roasted sprouts, drizzle over half the honey and stir together until nicely sticky. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.

Serve and sprinkle over half the flaked almonds to finish.
