Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Preheat the oven to gas 7 / 220C / 425F and line a roasting tin with foil
* Step 2
Pick even-sized hard nuts with full skins, no cracks, holes or signs of mould
* Step 3
Score each chestnut with a sharp knife
* Step 4
Soak in boiling water for 1 minute then pat dry
* Step 5
Place the chestnuts in the tin in a single layer. Gather up the edges of the foil to form a parcel leaving it slightly open on top
* Step 6
Roast for 15 minutes, the skins should be splitting open
* Step 7
Place a towel over the roasting tin. This helps with keeping the steam in which in turn will help the skins pop of more easily
* Step 8
After 15 minutes peel the skins off. Do this as soon as you can before the skins set and become hard again
* Step 9
For a quick savoury snack, season with a sprinkling of salt and enjoy
* Step 10
For a sweeter treat, melt the margarine in a frying pan over a medium heat
* Step 11
Add the chestnuts, sugar and cinnamon, stir well to coat
* Step 12
Transfer to a serving bowl and lightly salt. Delicious!
