Just a quickie today.
As chestnuts are everywhere here at the moment...
Chestnut & Sprouts Bake.
Equal quantities of chestnuts and sprouts.
Boil the sprouts for 5 mins then cool and slice, put in a ovenproof dish.
Bol chestnuts in their shells for 5 mins then peel, a little fiddly but peel easier if you leave them in the water as you do them and just pick out one at a time. Break into bits.
Mix into the sprouts.
Make a nice herby white sauce and pour over the lot, sprinkle top with oats and seseme seeds . Bake in a med, hot over till top is brown and bubbling.
Serve either as a side dish with meat n veg, or if veggie, add mushrooms, onions, and some grated cheese on toppping and serve with rice or pasta...
yum...
