Direcciones

  1. Drain and rinse chestnuts, remove loose skins and throw away any chestnuts with suspicious-looking holes.
  2. Place chestnuts, carrot, celery, leek, onion, garlic, loose spices and butter/oil in a 3-pint capacity saucepan. Fry together till the mix starts to brown. Add in water and wine, bring to the boil and simmer with lid on for 90 min. The chestnuts should be tender but not fall apart. Strain stock into a clean pan, pick out chestnuts from vegetables and save to garnish the nut roast.
  3. Throw away remaining vegetable mix. Mix yeast extract, comflour, and tomato puree to a paste with 4 tbsp cool water and stir into the warm chestnut stock.
  4. Bring to the boil stirring frequently, simmer for 5 min till thickened.
  5. NOTES : The basis of this gravy is the rich cooking stock from the wine-braised chestnuts. It can be made several days in advance if necessary and kept covered in the fridge.
