Background

If you’re on a diet, particularly on the Food Combining Diet, the recipe for this root vegetable mash will come in very handy! Because it’s “neutral”, it can be served with either protein-rich or carbohydrate-rich dishes. I normally make it using 3 to 5 different root vegetables – but you can use as many more or less as you like. Carrot, parsnip, swede, celeriac, turnip and beetroot are all good examples - but not potatoes or sweet potatoes because they're starchy and therefore not neutral! The mash can be served as a side dish or used as topping on a pie (such as Shepherd’s pie or Cottage Pie). I also use it for fishcakes instead of mashed potatoes.

Ingredients

200g parsnip
200g swede
200g celeriac
200g turnip
2 carrots
1 bay leaf
1 clove of garlic
Butter or dairy free spread
2 Tbsp freshly chopped herb of your choice

Instructions

Peel the vegetables then cut them into 3 cm chunks. Put them a large pan and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil and simmer for 15-20 minutes until tender.
Drain and return to the pan. Discard the bay leaf. Add the butter or spread, then mash, using a potato masher or hand-held blender.
Season to taste and stir through your chosen herb.
