A number of people have asked me for this easy, delicious recipe so here goes.
Braised Brussels Sprouts and Chestnuts
Serves 4
20 medium brussels sprouts, cleaned, ends cut off, an ‘X’ cut in the bottom of each
20 shelled chestnuts (try to keep the chestnuts whole)
½ cup beef stock
2 Tbsp. butter
- Blanch the brussels sprouts for 3 minutes in boiling water. Remove and drain.
- Put the brussels sprouts in a baking dish with a cover large enough to hold all the ingredients.
- Add the chestnuts, beef stock, and butter. Toss gently.
- Cover and bake at 350°F for 20-30 minutes until sprouts and chestnuts are tender.
This goes well with turkey, goose, or pork roasts.
