A sweet and savory chestnut stew made by simmering chestnuts in sugar and cooking oil until the outside is crispy and the inside is moist and tender.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Microwaving chestnuts for 1 minute helps loosen the inner shell by adding moisture, making it easier to remove with hands or a knife.
  • Sugar doesn't mix well with oil, so as the oil heats up, the sweetness penetrates deeper into the chestnuts.
  • After use, let the cooking oil cool completely, then carefully pour off only the clear oil (excluding any sugar residue) for reuse.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for a warm, sweet homemade snack during winter.
  • People who enjoy a unique seasonal chestnut dish with a crisp exterior and soft interior texture.
