POTATO AND CARROT PUREE



Potato And Carrot Puree image

This puree is excellent, especially if served immediately after it is prepared. Although we could have used a food mill, we pureed the vegetables in a food processor. If you puree potato only in this manner it will get ''cordy'' but, with the addition of the vegetable cooking liquid and the carrots, the mixture takes on a creamy though slightly chunky consistency, with pieces of potato and carrot still visible throughout.

Categories     dinner, side dish

Time 40m

Yield Six servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pounds boiling potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
1 pound carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the potatoes and carrots in a saucepan and cover with cool water. Bring to a boil and boil gently for 30 minutes, until tender.
  • Using a skimmer, remove the potatoes and carrots and place in the bowl of a food processor with one cup of the cooking liquid. Add the cream, butter, salt and pepper and process for 20 to 30 seconds, until creamy but still slightly chunky.
  • Serve as soon as possible, mounding the puree next to the sliced roast on each serving plate and spooning juice from the roast over it for added flavor.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 large Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes, held in water until ready for use
Kosher salt
2 large carrots, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 to 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 stick cold butter, cut into pats

Add about one-quarter of the hot cream and 2 pats of the butter, stirring vigorously until thoroughly combined. Repeat this process until all of the remaining cream and butter have been incorporated. Taste for seasoning (you will probably have to add salt).
  • Serve immediately in a warm serving bowl or keep warm until ready to use.

POTATO AND CARROT MASH



Potato and Carrot Mash image

I ate this often growing up, or some variation of it. My mom would always add things to the mashed potatoes if we were running low on potatoes - mostly carrots, but sometimes even turnip. The bits of carrot stay a little firmer than the potatoes, so you get little pops of sweetness in every bite.

Sweet Potato, Carrot, Apple, and Red Lentil Soup image

This winter pureed soup will warm you up on the inside while still protecting the waistline.

Provided by zhidaoma

Categories     Sweet Potato Soup

Time 1h10m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

¼ cup butter
2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped
3 large carrots, peeled and chopped
1 apple, peeled, cored and chopped
1 onion, chopped
½ cup red lentils
½ teaspoon minced fresh ginger
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon paprika
4 cups vegetable broth
plain yogurt

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large, heavy bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Place the chopped sweet potatoes, carrots, apple, and onion in the pot. Stir and cook the apples and vegetables until the onions are translucent, about 10 minutes.
  • Stir the lentils, ginger, ground black pepper, salt, cumin, chili powder, paprika, and vegetable broth into the pot with the apple and vegetable mixture. Bring the soup to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the lentils and vegetables are soft, about 30 minutes.
  • Working in batches, pour the soup into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth and pour into a clean pot. Alternately, you can use a stick blender and puree the soup right in the cooking pot.
  • Return the pureed soup to the cooking pot. Bring back to a simmer over medium-high heat, about 10 minutes. Add water as needed to thin the soup to your preferred consistency. Serve with yogurt for garnish.
