#ad It's sprouts season! Are you in the love them or hate them camp? Me, I love them, especially if they're roasted with maple syrup and a generous helping of... jerky!. Did you know that jerky can be a versatile recipe ingredient? Chop it up and sprinkle it on salads, soups, in chilli or roast it with your Brussels sprouts. .
To make this recipe, halve 500 grams of Brussels sprouts and finely chop 70 grams of Peperami Jerky. Heat 2 tbsp of butter in a saute pan and saute a couple of finely chopped garlic cloves for a minute or so, then add the sprouts and Peperami Jerky. Cook for a few more minutes, then pour in 100 ml maple syrup. Season well and transfer to a baking tin. Bake in a preheated 180C/350F oven for 15-20 minutes, until the sprouts have softened and have browned at the edges. .
@Peperami has recently launched its new range of jerky in original and hot flavours. Look out for it in most supermarkets. How do you like your jerky? #sprouts #roastedveggies #roastedsprouts #brusselsprouts #peperami #jerky #meat #meateater #recipe #easyrecipe #fdblogger #sidedish #instarecipe

It might be a tiny island archipelago in the North Atlantic, just 567 square miles in size, but there’s 1,679 miles of rather fabulous coastline to explore. There’s no such thing as bad weather either, just inappropriate clothing. Get out and play! Where’s your favourite piece of Shetland coastline? #inspiredbyshetland #shetlandphotography #cave #adventureisoutthere #scotlandisnow #thisisscotland #bbctravel #scotland #lovewhereyoulive #shetlandadventure #whatshetlandmeanstome #getoutside #exploremore #livefolk #roam #wildernessculture #stayandwander #picoftheday #allaboutadventures #greatoutdoors #wekeepmoments #discoverer #visualsofearth #greatnorthcollective

#ad Did you know that the Gressingham Duck is a cross between a flavoursome Mallard and the larger Pekin duck? It's super easy to cook too, simply sear the skin for 5 minutes until crispy and browned and then finish off in the oven for a further 15-18 minutes, depending on how well done you like your duck.
.
I love cooking with duck because it can make for a delicious, impressive meal in under 30 minutes. .
Here, I have served my @gressinghamduck breast (on offer for half price - £4.25 - at @tescofood between the 12th November - 2nd December) with some seasonal, locally grown shallots and rainbow chard, dressed with a light orange sauce. .
To make this recipe, simply cook your duck according to the package instructions, and while it's roasting in the oven, sautée 200 grams of halved shallots in the duck fat remaining in the frying pan. Sprinkle over one tablespoonful of caster sugar, and then add the juice of two small oranges and a tiny splash of red wine vinegar. Season well, and while the duck breast is resting for 5 minutes, add 80 grams of chopped rainbow chard.
.
Slice the duck breast into thick slices and serve on the sautéed shallots with rainbow chard. How do you like your duck? What's your ultimate 'dine-in' duck recipe for these colder evenings?
