Roasted chestnuts

Preheat the oven to 200 °C (conventional/top and bottom heat) and place the chestnuts in an ovenproof dish.

Score each chestnut crosswise on the rounded side.

Roast the chestnuts in the oven for about 20 minutes, until the shells have clearly split open.

Remove the chestnuts from the oven, wrap them in a damp cloth, and let them cool briefly.

Remove the shell and the brown inner skin, and serve the chestnuts warm.
