Recipe for Carrot and Parsnip Mash

Sent in by: John Harrison

Ingredients

Carrots
Parsnips
Butter
Seasoning

Method

Cut the carrots and parsnips into fairly small pieces and either boil in a small amount of water or steam until soft. Drain off the water, add butter and seasoning then mash as for potatoes.

Notes:

Although a very simple dish, the sweetness of carrots and parsnips make this appealing to children. A good way to get two of their ‘five a day ‘ vegetables into them. I prefer more pepper than children may like and find white pepper works best.

We make up a batch and freeze - a time saver and a way to use those damaged vegetables that will not store well.
