Method

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180°C/gas 4. Heat the olive oil in a pan, add the onion and cook for 4 minutes until softened, not browned.

Step 2

Add the plain flour to coat the onion, mix in a good pinch of white pepper and the wholegrain mustard. Slowly stir in the milk until it thickens.

Step 3

Add half the Cheddar and half the Parmesan, stirring for 2–3 minutes until melted. Meanwhile, boil the sprouts in boiling water for 7–8 minutes.

Step 4

Drain, place in an ovenproof dish, pour over the sauce, and top with wholemeal breadcrumbs and remaining Cheddar and Parmesan. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until golden brown on top.

Recipe tips

For extra flavour, add 2–3 cloves crushed garlic or 1 tbsp freshly chopped herbs, such as coriander or chives.

For a festive feel, add 150g vacuum-packed cooked chestnuts.
