Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C. Put the sprouts on a large baking sheet, pour over the oil, then use your hands to thoroughly rub it into the layers of the sprouts. Roast for 10-15 mins until crispy and lightly golden.
  2. Meanwhile, beat the Marmite and butter together in a bowl. Dot the Marmite butter over the sprouts and toss to combine. Scatter over the chestnuts and cheese and return to the oven; cook for a further 5 mins until beginning to char and crisp.
  • Use it up: Add leftover chestnuts to your stuffing mix, or crumble into porridge with fruit.
