CHAMPIT TATTIES: SCOTTISH MASHED POTATOES
A modern and lighter version of traditional Scottish Champit Tatties, using light or fat-free sour cream in place of the usual heavy double cream. Easy, one-pan dish! For variation, top with skirlie - oats fried in butter, or crumbled crisp bacon.

Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, melt butter and saute potatoes, turning to coat.
- Stir in the chives and just enough water to keep potatoes from sticking to the pan.
- Cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes until potatoes are done; check periodically and add a little water as needed to prevent potatoes from scorching.
- Mash potatoes in the pot (no need to drain); stir in salt & pepper to taste, and the sour cream.
- Serve Champit Tatties hot & garnished with snipped fresh parsley, or top with skirlie - oats fried in butter or crisp crumbled bacon, as desired.

Steps:
- The day before you want to serve, preheat the oven to fan oven 200C/conventional 220C/gas 7. Put the potatoes into a pan of lightly salted water, return to the boil and cook for 5 minutes. Drain the potatoes, put them back into the pan and place it back on the heat for a couple of minutes to dry out.
- Meanwhile, pour the oil into a large roasting tin (you may have to use two) and heat it in the oven until smoking hot. Now stir the potatoes into the hot oil and return to the oven to roast, turning occasionally, for 55 minutes.
- Cook the swede in boiling salted water for 50-55 minutes, or until very soft. Drain and add to the roasted potatoes. Roughly mash everything together, keeping quite chunky, then cool, cover and keep in a cool place.
- To serve, preheat the oven to fan 180C/conventional 200C/gas 6. Uncover the potatoes and swede, dot with the butter and put in the oven to reheat for 25-30 minutes, stirring now and again until piping hot. Serve with lots of butter.
