Hudspud

Recipe #376623 | 45 min | 15 min prep | add private note

My mom makes this often, she said one day her and my dad were boiling potatoes and said, why don't we throw some carrots in there? They add a splash of orange color to the potatoes and are delicious. I can't find another hudspud recipe on Google.

SERVES 4 , 1 bowl (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 6-8 potatoes (the brown ones are fine, peeled and cut up into chunks)
  • 1/4 lb baby carrot (Mom says 'a handful', I'd use 1/4 of a bag)
  • 1/4 cup red onion, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon butter or margarine
  • 1-2 tablespoon milk
  • salt & pepper

Directions

  1. 1
    Simmer potatoes, carrots, and red onion in a pot with water, uncovered, until cooked, about 30 minutes. Test with a fork to be sure, it should pierce the potatoes easily.
  2. 2
    Drain and remove to a bowl.
  3. 3
    Add butter or margerine, and a splash of milk--not much, because the carrots will make it watery. Add salt & pepper to taste. Beat with beaters until smooth.

Giving this a top rating because I have eaten a lot of "hudspud". Probably a recipe out there somewhere but my mother made these often growing up in Northern Ireland. She also added turnip. Didn't have a name for them before! A dash of nutmeg is good or some chopped cooked bacon (or bacon bits). Thanks for submitting.
