Root vegetable mash

Comments

  • the best veg mash is carrot and swede, add butter and a level tsp of sugar, bit of salt , then blend with a handblender, if they are on offer, add sweet potatos too, (all been cooked in a steamer by the way), if theres any left, mix with a couple of veg stock cubes and it makes fab soup :)

    Looks yummy, but..


    I'll get my own dinner, ta :eek::rotfl::p

    Too right you will. Get mine while you're up please? There's a good girl. *slaps backside* ;)
  • If you're going to be doing much in the way of mash southerscouser, may I suggest you treat yourself to one of these ? Best masher in the world. Cuts through the veggies, doesn't destroy the cell structure and make wallpaper paste like so many. I often do swede and carrot, must try your combo ;)

    And no I'm not on commission despite recommending these loads :rotfl:
    You never get a second chance to make a first impression.

    £9.50? :eek: I'd rather crush it with my hands. ;):p

    I bought one from Tesco for £4. Does the job. :D
  • Ooops paid about £6.50 when I got mine :o Bet it's better than yours :p Never ever makes gloop. Brilliant if the veg are slightly underdone when you come to mash them too :o Each to their own :D

    You are such a chauvanist! :rotfl:

    The good girl in me wants to though... and then the feminist wants to knock you one :A
  • Parsnip and celeriac is a dreamy combo, too

    Ooo, yes. I forgot celeriac. OK, it's not to everyone's taste, but it's sometimes price reduced as a result, and is perfect in something like this.
    The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in my life. :)
  • Try adding a good tablespoon of wholegrain mustard and olive oil (if you need to watch the waistline) instead of butter very nice!
