Gorgeous Mashed Swede (Rutabaga)

Recipe #399822 | 45 min | 5 min prep | add private note

Forget mashed potatoes! I was never a huge fan of swede, I usually find it quite bland if not rotten tasting, unless perhaps if mashed with carrots. I'm glad I've found a way to love this cheap and wholesome vegetable, great texture, great flavour and good enough to eat on its own. A can of stewed steak in gravy turns this into a cheap and nutritious simple meal for 2.

SERVES 2 -4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Peel and cube the swede and boil for 40 minutes or so until completely tender.
  2. 2
    Drain and return to the dry pan and place over a low heat to allow the excess water to evaporate off.
  3. 3
    Mash in the pan with a little milk, a lot of butter, some salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper.
  4. 4
    You won't believe how good it is!

Even when I was a kid, cooked rutabaga has always been one of my favorite vegetables! I make it like this but with LOTS of butter & w/o the milk...HEAVEN!!! I also like it in a stew or a boiled dinner, cause it absorbs the flavor of the meat.
