This is a very intriguing dish. The flavours blend so well it is hard to identify any one of the componants; instead it seems like some new, mysterious veggie.

Wasnt sure about this from reading it, but it was surprisingly good. The rutabaga gave a subtle sweetness to the mash, as did the carrots. A nice change from standard mash potatoes. A definate keeper.

    We really loved the carrots in this clapshot! I also added a turnip plus a pinch each of ginger & nutmeg. Served with my Delectable Pan-Fried Chicken Livers With Apple, Onion, and Sage and it was a delicious & healthy meal!! Thanks Jenny, will definitely make again!

    I grew up on this for my family this is comfort food. The only difference is we fry it with onions. Perfect on a cold winter night and goes great with any meat you may be serving. You can also use leftovers to make this, you don't have to make freash veggies.

    This has to be my favourite mash, have been making it for years. I used a swede and also added a parsnip. Mashed it with the butter and for some reason I like white pepper in this mash and that is what I used. Didn't put the egg in, like it rustic.
