Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 1/2 lb yellow-fleshed potatoes such as Yukon Gold
3 lb turnips or rutabagas, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons horseradish cream or drained bottled horseradish, or to taste
2 to 4 teaspoons sugar
1/2 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Cover potatoes with salted cold water by 2 inches in a large pot and simmer, uncovered, until very tender, 20 to 30 minutes (depending on size of potatoes). Drain potatoes in a colander and, when just cool enough to handle, peel. Transfer potatoes to a bowl.
  • While potatoes are cooking, cover turnips with salted cold water by 2 inches in a large pot and simmer, uncovered, until very tender, 10 to 20 minutes (depending on freshness of turnips).
  • Drain turnips in colander and immediately add to warm potatoes, then mash with butter and horseradish. Season with sugar (to taste), salt, and pepper and stir in parsley.

The turnips were a bit too strong for my taste. I think I'll try this recipe again with a different root vegetable.

I found the dish to be a bit bland. I think it could use some more seasoning.

I'm not a fan of horseradish, so I omitted it from the recipe. It was still delicious!

I added some chopped carrots and celery to mine, and it was even better!

I was skeptical about the horseradish, but it really works in this dish. It adds a nice sharpness that balances out the sweetness of the turnips.

These mashed potatoes and turnips are a delightful combination. The horseradish adds a nice kick, and the turnips give the dish a slightly sweet and earthy flavor. I will definitely be making this again!
