Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 I'm sure Chrisnrob have given you the info you need but what kind of chestnuts have you got? I've got a pack of ready roasted ones which you stick in boiling water (in the vacuum-pack bag) then fry up with your cooked sprouts.

xChicken04x Posted December 24, 2007 Author Share Posted December 24, 2007 Thank you both, we have just normal chestnuts, in their shell. I think we have it sorted now, I'm sure I will be back later on with more questions Thank you both again! xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 I just shove them in the oven with a little oil drizzled over them. If one explodes, you know they're done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
