Add warmth and festive flair to your Christmas table with our Roasted Bacon Brussels Sprouts, a seasonal Lotts & Co favourite. We start with fresh Brussels sprouts, roasting them to a golden crisp in a blend of Pomace olive oil and rapeseed oil. This roasting process creates a caramelised exterior with a tender centre. A sprinkle of sea salt enhances their natural sweetness and forms a perfect foundation for smoky bacon lardons.
Next, we add diced red onion for an earthy sweetness that complements the savoury bacon and balances the Brussels sprouts’ flavour. A drizzle of our signature balsamic glaze – made from cooked grape must and premium Balsamic Vinegar of Modena – adds a tangy, slightly sweet note. The glaze’s gentle caramel touch coats the sprouts in a glossy finish, adding a festive touch to the presentation.
Finally, toasted hazelnuts top off this vibrant side with a delicate crunch and nutty warmth. Their texture contrasts beautifully with the soft Brussels sprouts and crispy bacon, creating a satisfying balance in each bite. This combination of balsamic sweetness, savoury bacon, and toasted hazelnuts delivers a delightful mix of festive flavours and textures.
Ideal for sharing, our Roasted Bacon Brussels Sprouts captures the spirit of the season. It pairs well with any Christmas main and offers a memorable taste that guests will savour long after the meal.
