Brussel Sprouts with Chestnuts & Cream
Double cream adds a little touch of luxury to the traditional pairing of Brussels sprouts and chestnuts in this simple, time-saving and tasty recipe. Serves 6-8 as a side.
Method
Place a large, shallow pan over a medium-high heat and pour in the stock. Bring it up to the boil, then carefully add the sprouts and let the pan continue to boil until the sprouts are just tender and the liquid has reduced a bit.
Lower the heat so the pan is simmering, then stir in the chestnuts and cream and let it all bubble together for 2-3 minutes, stirring gently. Season with salt and pepper to your taste, then serve straight away.
