Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Garlic and Pancetta

This recipe for roasted Brussels sprouts with garlic and pancetta transforms the humble sprout into a truly savoury delight. By roasting them at a high temperature, the outer leaves become crisp and beautifully caramelised, while the pancetta adds a salty, smoky depth that perfectly complements the earthy vegetables. A final splash of water in the hot pan creates a light, flavourful glaze by lifting the golden juices from the tray.

As a naturally dairy-free side dish, this recipe is an excellent choice for a nutritious midweek meal or a sophisticated addition to a Sunday roast. The combination of pungent garlic and protein-rich pancetta ensures even those who are usually sprout-sceptical will enjoy this dish. For the best results, use fresh seasonal produce and ensure the sprouts are cut to a uniform size for even cooking.
