Ingredients

4 slices prosciutto
750g medium sprouts, trimmed and outer leaves removed
50g butter
finely grated zest ¼ lemon

Method

Heat a large frying pan and cook the prosciutto in batches, laying the slices flat in the pan until brown and crispy. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Steam or boil the sprouts for 7-8 mins until just tender, drain and return to the pan with the butter, lemon zest and some seasoning. Turn the sprouts until well coated, then tip into a serving bowl, tear over the crispy prosciutto and season with freshly ground black pepper.
