Method

  • step 1

    Put the brussels sprouts in a large pan, cover with boiling water and cook for 8-10 mins or until very tender. Drain, and leave to steam-dry for a few mins. Tip back into a saucepan and mash to a chunky texture with a potato masher. Add the butter, cream and nutmeg, and season well. Cook for a further 2 mins. Mix in half the chestnuts, then sprinkle over the remaining chestnuts to serve.

question

could you cook this and freeze and then re-heat?

We would suggest doing this fresh for best results. You could cook and mash them the day before, then reheat with the last few ingredients on the day.

Made this as per recipe excluding nutmeg as I don't like it, was absolutely delicious!

Easy, tasty and went down a storm. Used bacon and smoked paprika instead of chestnuts. B.E.A.utiful.

Didn't have any chestnuts either so bashed up some mixed nuts and added them instead. I don't like sprouts but I really enjoyed these smashed ones! I would definitely make again and would try the chestnuts as well as using my mixed nut variation.
