Ingredients
- 800 g carrots
- 1 kg swede
- 120 g salted butter
- 1 level dessertspoon salt
- ½ tsp white pepper
Instructions
Peel and dice carrots and swede, making sure they are both of a similar size to maintain even cooking. Place the carrots and swede in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Add 1 level dessertspoon of salt. Bring to boil then turn down to a gentle simmer.
When the vegetables are tender, drain of excess water and using a fork, crush in the pan with the butter. Stir in white pepper, place in a bowl and serve with your favourite roast or slow braise.
