Chestnuts
Roasting chestnuts is such a beautiful thing to do on a cold winter's night. Its a great ritual that has been around in our house for ever, and the bonus is that the kids and adults love to do it. They taste good, great source of protein
IMPORTANT:
Its imperative that you make a small slit in the top of the chestnut or they will burst during roasting.
Place chestnuts on baking tray. Cook at 200 degrees for around 15-30 mins, dependant on oven. You know when they are ready because you can crack the outer shell with your hand (against the table) and the chestnuts are tender.
The trick with roasted chestnuts is that you need to peel them when they are hot (kind of like playing hot potato) otherwise the skin is very challenging to remove.
