Boiled/Stewed Chestnuts (煌焖板栗）

Alternative to Roasted Chestnuts, Stewed Chestnuts (煌焖板栗)

Winter in Armidale is a season for chestnuts. That refreshed my memory of roasted chestnut in Lanzhou. Today (05/29/10), after visited Bunnings’ grant opening in Armidale, we bought a bout 1 kg of chestnuts, looks like good quality, as there were fatty round and big.

I can’t make roasted chestnuts here. Instead I cooked it as boiled chestnuts. The finished product is not bad.

1^st Cut chestnut halfway through. This is an important step, to peal shell after cooked.

2^nd pour into pan and add water, just cover the nut. Put on oven and boiling for 30 minutes.

this is the finished product. taste great!
