Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and quartered
Kosher salt
2 bay leaves
2 carrots, chopped
3 sprigs thyme
1 small rutabaga, peeled and chopped
1 medium turnip, peeled and chopped
2 leeks (white and light green parts only), sliced 1/2 inch thick, rinsed well
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
8 ounces button mushrooms, quartered
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 1/2 cups half-and-half
1 cup frozen peas
Grated zest and juice of 1/2 lemon
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons curry powder

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Put the potatoes in a large saucepan, cover with cold water by 1 inch and season with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, fill a separate large saucepan with 6 cups water; add the bay leaves, thyme sprigs and 2 teaspoons salt. Bring to a boil. Add the carrots, rutabaga, turnip and leeks; reduce the heat to medium low and simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Reserve 1 1/2 cups cooking liquid, then drain the vegetables. Discard the bay leaves and thyme. Pat the vegetables dry; set aside.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the mushrooms; cook until they release their liquid, 3 minutes. Increase the heat to medium; cook until the liquid is evaporated, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle with the flour, coriander and nutmeg; cook, stirring, 1 minute. Whisk in the reserved cooking liquid and 3/4 cup half-and-half. Bring to a simmer; cook until thickened, 3 minutes. Stir in the carrot mixture, peas and lemon zest and juice. Return to a simmer, then remove from the heat. Season with salt and stir in the parsley.
  • Drain the potatoes and let cool slightly. Return to the pot and add the curry powder and the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and 3/4 cup half-and-half. Season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and mash well.
  • Spread the mushroom mixture in a 3-quart baking dish. Dollop the mashed potatoes on top; spread with the back of a spoon. Bake until bubbling around the edges and the topping is browned in spots, about 20 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste. Next time I'll use less curry powder.

The potatoes were a bit dry. I think I should have added more milk or butter.

I found this dish to be a bit bland. I added some extra curry powder and garam masala to taste.

This was a delicious and easy-to-make dish. I used a mix of vegetables, including carrots, peas, and corn, and the curry powder gave it a nice flavor. I served it with mashed potatoes and a side salad.
