4 large potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
2 turnips, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
1 parsnip, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
6 cloves garlic, peeled
Half-and-half
1 large egg
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Pinch of freshly ground nutmeg
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Place potatoes, turnips, parsnip, and garlic in a medium saucepan; add enough half-and-half to cover. Place over medium high heat and cook until vegetables are easily pierced with the tip of a knife, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain, reserving cooking liquid.
Return vegetables to saucepan and add egg, butter, and 1/4 cup cooking liquid. Using a potato masher, mash until smooth, adding more cooking liquid as necessary. Season with nutmeg, salt, and pepper and serve immediately.
