To Prepare:
To prepare the chestnuts, place an incision on them side ways
with a small knife. Place the oil in a medium size sauce pan
and bring it to the frying point. Place the chestnuts in the

the chestnuts from the pot and set them aside. Sauté
the liver with the herbs, and it has attained a nice color,
add the rest of the ingredients, the chestnuts, and the vermouth.
Cover and cook for 15 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Remove the
liver, and add cream to the pot.
