NOTES : Chestnuts work well with root vegetables and also make this

casserole more of a meal. I like to pur‚e some of the cooked

mixture to make the background texture more substantial. As with

most dishes of this kind, they are best made the day before and

reheated. Serve this with green vegetables and baked potatoes for

a complete meal.

NOTES : This is an unusual way of serving root vegetables with their

sweetness gently brought out. Opening the bags to reveal the

different vegetables is a real treat and especially pretty

because

the beetroot weeps some of its vermilion juices over the other

vegetables.
