{{RecipeIngredients
| 1 kg (2¼lb) of raw [[Chestnuts|chestnuts]]
| Good shake of [[sea salt]]
}}

===[[Mise en place]]===
* Preheat the [[Grill|grill]]
or
* Preheat the [[Oven|oven]] to 200° C (400° F - gas 6), [fan oven 180° C & reduce cooking time by 10 mins per hour]

===Method===
{{RecipeMethod
| Cut a slit in every [[Chestnut|chestnut]]. This prevents them exploding and making a mess of the [[Oven|oven]]
| Either: [[Grill]] on a tray for about 10 to 15 minutes, turning now and then
| Or [[Roast]] in the [[Oven|oven]] for 30 minutes
| You can add a shake of [[sea salt]] before, or after roasting
| Allow to cool so they can be handled
| Peel both layers of skin off, taking care to remove all of the inner layer as it can be rather bitter
| Eat as they are, with a little [[Salt|salt]] or use as directed in your recipe.
