This is a lovely side dish, especially for people who might not normally consider Brussels sprouts

Vary amounts according to taste, but roughly
400g Brussels sprouts
2-3 middle rashers of bacon
Small handful of slivered almonds
Trim the ends of the sprouts and halve them before parboiling.
While they are in the water, finely chop middle rashers of bacon and fry in a small amount of oil.
Drain the sprouts and add to the bacon.
Add the almonds, stirring all together.
