You are going to change your mind. It’s infallible.

The original recipe is from Deliciously Ella (https://deliciouslyella.com), but we adopt it for so long that we wanted to share it anyway…

For 4 people
(8 as a side dish)

1kg (2 lb) of potatoes
500g (1 lb) of Brussels sprouts
80g (3 oz) of hazelnuts
1 pomegranate
Maple syrup
Fleur de sel
Pepper
Olive oil

In a dish, halve the Brussels sprouts and cut the potatoes into pieces of the same size. Drizzle with olive oil, add two pinches of fleur de sel, some pepper and mix. Bake in medium oven, stirring occasionally, until the sprouts and potatoes are golden brown (about ¾ hour). Add the roughly crushed hazelnuts and bake for 5 to 10 more minutes.

Meanwhile, take the seeds off the pomegranate.

Remove the dish from oven, add a drizzle of maple syrup and the seeds of the pomegranate. Serve immediately. You can add some chopped flat-leaf parsley.
