Ingredients
900g of chestnuts (to give 450g of shelled meats)
Â
Method
Preheat the over to 230°C/Gas Mark 8.
With a sharp paring knife, cut a 1cm cross on the flat side of each chestnut, cutting through the shell. Spread the nuts out on a baking pan, pour in 1cm of water and bake for 15-20 minutes, until the shells open. When cool enough to handle, peel the chestnuts. Be sure to do this while they are still warm.Â
