Stir-fried chestnuts with sugar

Overview

Yesterday I baked it in the oven, but the opening was not ideal. I tried this method today, stir-fried with sugar, and the result was better than roasting. It was easy to peel, and the chestnuts were also very soft, waxy, and sweet!

3. 3 Then cut it into a cross-shaped knife, and cut more on both sides, so that the mouth will open wider when cooking.
