1 packet of cooked chestnuts, this is usually 180g
3T aquafaba, the water from a can of chickpeas
200ml milk
50g fine brown sugar
1/2t vanilla essence

Method
Blend all of the ingredients in a high speed blender or food processor. Blend until it is completely smooth.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream machine, churn and freeze until the ice cream is thick and creamy. Spoon the ice cream into a Tupperware box and store in the freezer. If you do not have an ice cream machine you can pour it into a shallow box, freeze it until it starts to harden, then blend and refreeze. Do this multiple times until the ice crystals are gone.
If the ice cream gets too hard bring it out of the freezer 10 minutes before you want to serve it.
