- 1
Preheat the oven to gas 7 / 220C / 425F and line a roasting tin with foil
- 2
Pick even-sized hard nuts with full skins, no cracks, holes or signs of mould
- 3
Score each chestnut with a sharp knife
- 4
Soak in boiling water for 1 minute then pat dry
- 5
Place the chestnuts in the tin in a single layer. Gather up the edges of the foil to form a parcel leaving it slightly open on top
- 6
Roast for 15 minutes, the skins should be splitting open
- 7
Place a towel over the roasting tin. This helps with keeping the steam in which in turn will help the skins pop of more easily
- 8
After 15 minutes peel the skins off. Do this as soon as you can before the skins set and become hard again
- 9
For a quick savoury snack, season with a sprinkling of salt and enjoy
- 10
For a sweeter treat, melt the margarine in a frying pan over a medium heat
- 11
Add the chestnuts, sugar and cinnamon, stir well to coat
- 12
Transfer to a serving bowl and lightly salt. Delicious!
