BELGIAN STOEMP AUX CAROTTES (CARROT MASHED POTATOES)



Belgian Stoemp Aux Carottes (Carrot Mashed Potatoes) image

This is a popular side dish in Belgium. It usually goes with blood sausage (boudin) or strips of bacon, but I often serve it with sautéed chicken. Go easy on the cream, you want it to have more substance than smooth mashed potatoes.

300 g carrots, peeled and sliced

CARROT & BACON MASHED POTATOES



Carrot & Bacon Mashed Potatoes image

One of my German husband's childhood favorites. He likes to turn it into a more savory dish by crumbling some fried bacon over it. Nice with fried meat like pork chops or sausages and green beans or broccoli.
