Sprout haters may well be converted by this seasonal dish that truly makes the most of sprouts. It wouldn’t look out of place alongside chicken or sausages, or even with some roast turkey.

- Peel and trim the sprouts and cut into quarters lengthways.
- Toss in an ovenproof dish with 1 tablespoon of the duck fat and the sugar and season well.

- Cook for 1 more minute, remove from the heat and stir through the breadcrumbs, orange zest and parsley.
- Season.
- Stir the chestnuts into the sprouts. Pour over the chicken stock. Top with the stuffing mixture and return to the oven for 10 minutes, or until golden.
