This is a nice vegetarian alternative to a meat ragu. The chestnuts have a lovely sweetness about them which goes well with the tomatoes and they also give it a really nice thick texture.

Love cooking food that I can share with friends. Never happier than when I’ve got people over for dinner enjoying great food (and great wine of course). I’m a big fan of seasonal ingredients and coming up with quick and fresh ideas for during the busy working week.

Really nice combination of flavours. I added celery for some added crunch and replaced lentils with faro (my wife does not like lentils). It came out so well. Thanks for sharing this recipe.
