Brussels sprouts with chestnuts and bacon
1 1/3 kg 3 pounds) Brussels sprouts, trimmed

Bring a large pan of water to the boil, add the sprouts and cook until
just tender, 8-12 minutes, depending on their size. Drain well.
Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large frying pan or wok and fry the bacon
until crisp. Add the chestnuts and cook for about a minute, just to heat
through. When warm, tip in the drained Brussels. Mix and season with salt
and freshly ground black pepper.
