Brussels Sprouts with Chestnuts
Fried with a little butter

This is my mum’s recipe and it’s a perfect way to freshen up that staple of Christmas dinners, the humble sprout. A bit of Madeira wine and butter really brings out the richness of the chestnuts.

Ingredients

  • 1kg frozen sprouts (pre-boiled, if fresh)
  • 55g butter
  • 100g chestnuts from a jar
  • 1 Knorr Chicken Stock Pot
  • A splash of Madeira wine

Buy chestnuts from a jar, they’re just as good. Roasting and peeling fresh ones spells aggravation

Knorr

Method

1. Melt half the butter in a pan, and add the chestnuts and Knorr Stock Pot. Add a splash of Madeira.

2. Continue to fry until the chestnuts look glazed (tossing the food in the butter to give a glossy finish).

3. Using a separate pan, fry the sprouts in the remaining butter for 5-6 minutes.

4. When they’re done add both chestnuts and sprouts to a bowl and serve. Simple and delicious.

* Healthy Tips:
Why not try boiling the sprouts until cooked and tossing with the glazed chestnuts?
Try fresh orange juice instead of Madeira wine.
