Wash the Brussels sprouts and separate the outer leaves and also blanch them in salted water for three minutes and chill them ice-cold.
For the sauce, lightly crush the poppy seeds, prepare a vinaigrette with the other ingredients and season to taste, mix with the vegetables and let everything steep.
For the spaetzle:
Put all ingredients in a bowl and beat into a batter until air bubbles appear.
Let rest for ten minutes, then beat the dough again and bring to the boil in salted water until the spaetzle are cooked through.
If they float on the surface, put them off as cold as ice, then they won't stick together.
For the sauce:
Preheat the oven to the highest grill setting and place the bones on the tray or put in a roaster and roast for about 30 minutes, turning several times.
Chop the vegetables and fry in butter, after ten minutes add the chopped onions and garlic cloves and fry for another seven minutes over low heat.
Add herbs, spices and blackberry jam, deglaze with wine and stock and lightly salt.
Add bones and cover and simmer over low heat for an hour.
Then remove the bones and bay leaves, puree everything and add the cream, season to taste and strain through a sieve.
