Sprinkling with freshly homemade dukkah really takes some simple baby cucumber boats with labneh up a few notches. They are quick to make, crunchy and keto-friendly - great for when you’re in the mood for a healthy snack, or entertaining.

Select chestnuts that are heavy for their size with tight, shiny shells. Dull and very light chestnuts may be older and already somewhat dried out. Holes in the shell indicate a worm infestation. If you are not sure, you can put the chestnuts in warm water. If the nuts are fresh, they will sink to the bottom.
The chestnuts develop their nutty-sweet aroma when roasted. Enjoy them plain or with some salt and butter. The chestnut puree is delicious either warm or cold. You can spread it on bread or serve it as a hearty dip with vegetable sticks as a snack or starter! The shell is best removed when the chestnuts are still hot. Make sure that the brown, furry skin is also removed.
