Ingredients
- 250 g Sprouts - this works out at 6 sprouts per person, for 4 people, adjust this as you want
- 80 g Chestnuts - cooked
- 300 ml Vegetable stock - or water
- 1 tsp Butter - vegan
- Salt and pepper
- Parsley - to garnish, optional
Instructions
- Heat the butter in a heavy bottomed frying pan and add the cooked chestnuts. Fry them for a minute or so to give them a little toasty colour.
- Now throw in the raw sprouts and coat them in this mixture.
- Add the stock and some salt and pepper and bring up to gently simmer.
- Uncovered, cook the sprouts until all the water has evaporated. You may want to add a little more water if you like your sprouts a little more tender.
- Taste for seasoning, sprinkle with a little chopped parsley and serve!
