POTATO, CELERIAC & PARSNIP MASH WITH LEEK FRIZZLE
This is an exciting alternative to basic mashed potatoes and makes an interesting and attractive side dish to any kind of meat, poultry or fish. The celery root adds a wonderfully distinct flavour. I suggest using the chicken stock and always, always use the fresh herbs. This recipe is from the LCBO Food and Drink magazine.

SAVORY PARSNIP MASH
When shopping for parsnips, chose the smaller ones which are far more tender than the larger ones. The smaller parsnips tend not to have the woody inside core that you find with larger or older parsnips. This savory dish is a nice alternative to mashed potatoes and it is the perfect side for most meats.

Steps:
- In a small pan add butter, garlic and shallots, cook on low heat allowing to lightly caramelize, remove the pan from heat, season with thyme, salt, pepper and horseradish cream, set aside until needed.
- Place the parsnips in a saucepan and cover with chicken stock and water, add the freshly ground allspice and stir, bring to a boil over high heat.
- Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 15 - 20 minutes, then drain. The parsnips should be tender, but not mushy.
- Now return the parsnips to the saucepan and add the 10% cream, mix well and cook for another 5 minutes on low heat, stirring periodically.
- Remove from heat and mash with a potato masher. If too thick add a little more of the 10% cream, please don't forget that you will be adding yorgurt next.
- Stir in the yogurt, the buttered garlic and shallot mixture and mix well, if necessary re-season with salt and pepper to taste and garnish with a pinch of allspice, serve immediately.

Steps:
- Fill a large pot halfway with cold water. Peel the potatoes and cut into 2 inch cubes, adding to the pot as they are cut. Add cold water to cover by 1 inch, if needed. Stir in the 3 tbsp kosher salt.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium low and gently simmer until tender, 10-15 minutes. Drain potatoes and transfer to a baking sheet. Let dry 5-10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat milk, cream, peppercorns, sprigs and bay leaves in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until mixture is very hot but not boiling, about 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let mixture infuse for 20 minutes then strain.
- While milk mixture is infusing, pass the potatoes through the smallest disk of a food mill along with the diced butter into a large bowl. The hot cream mixture should be ready by this time so stir into the riced potatoes. Season with salt and pepper.
- If you need to hold the mashed potatoes, cover with plastic wrap pressed directly against the potatoes surface and set bowl over a large pot of simmering water for up to 2 hours.

Steps:
- *NOTE: swedes are known in US as rutabagas. I've also used yams/sweet potatoes, turnips and fingerlings in this recipe. ~fyi~.
- Feel free to use any single vegetable or a mixture of your favorites. Cookgirl says that a mixture of root vegetables is the way to go!
- Peel the root vegetables then chop up into golf-ball sized pieces, place in salted boiling water and cook until very tender.
- Drain in a colander.
- Place the vegetables back in the pan and mash with a potato masher.
- You can mash them as smooth or as chunky as you like. Season with salt and pepper, then enrich the flavor with extra virgin oil or butter, or both, to taste. (I prefer using both olive oil and butter.).
- Jamie continues to say: once cooked, the mashed vegetables can be kept warm in a bowl covered with kitchen foil over simmering water. This is handy when cooking for a dinner party -- (especially when timing is of utmost importance.).
