While this is an item for a vegan menu, this chestnut sauce is great on beef, chicken or fish. Of course, it is also good on brussels sprouts, spinach or cauliflower.
 

Ingredients

  • 1 pint chestnuts
  • 3 or 4 celery leaves
  • 1 1/2 pints vegetable stock
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. 1. Make a small slit on the flat side of each chestnut; boil them for five minutes. Remove from heat and remove the skins and shells with a knife.
  2. 2. Return the chestnuts to the heat and cook them with the celery leaves in one pint of the vegetable stock until tender. The stock should be entirely reduced. Remove from the heat and reserve.
  3. 3. Make a sauce with the olive oil, flour and the remaining stock. Add the salt, pepper and chestnuts.
