    Cook in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ gas: level 3) for about 2 hours. Peel and quarter onions and after 1 hour add them to the meat with peppercorns and bay leaf. Gradually add 3/8 litres of water.

    In the meantime, cook the remaining Brussels sprouts for the garnish for about 20 minutes in salted water, drain. Shortly before serving, toss in hot fat. Season with nutmeg and grated lemon peel.
