- 1.5 cup chicken or vegetable stock
- 0.5 cup double cream
- 1 savoy cabbage

1. For the chestnut puree: slice the shallots and garlic and fry in a pan for a few minutes.
2. Add the chestnuts and 1/2 cup of stock to the pan.
3. Reduce the stock by 50%, then add the cream.
4. Cook for a few minutes then transfer to a blender and blend until smooth. Season with salt.
