DUBLIN VEGETABLES (MASHED CARROT AND PARSNIP)



Dublin Vegetables (Mashed Carrot and Parsnip) image

We first had this purée of carrots and parsnips in a hotel in Dublin when I was a child, and it has been called "Dublin vegetables" in our family ever since! If you prefer, you can mash the vegetables instead of blitzing them to a purée - it still tastes fabulous.

Time 40m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb carrot, peeled and cut into chunks
1 lb parsnip, peeled and cut into chunks
2 ounces butter
salt
pepper
nutmeg (optional)

Steps:

  • Put the carrots and parsnips into a large saucepan, cover with water, put on the lid, bring to a boil, then simmer until all the vegetables are soft (20-30 minutes, depending on your vegetables and the size you have cut).
  • Drain off all the water, and return the vegetables to the hot pan to evaporate off any excess moisture - you don't want the purée to be too wet.
  • Add the butter, salt and pepper (to taste), then blitz with a hand blender until you have a purée (it's nice left lumpy, too).
  • Serve hot, with extra butter, freshly ground black pepper and a little nutmeg (if liked) ground over the top.

Trio of Mashed Roots (Parsnip, Turnip and Carrot) image

This fall and winter farm recipe was passed down from my Irish-Canadian grandmother Agnes Walsh (Donahoe). It's a simple mash that I updated with a dash of nutmeg and cayenne. An exciting (and affordable) side dish for all holiday menus.
