Steps:
- *NOTE: swedes are known in US as rutabagas. I've also used yams/sweet potatoes, turnips and fingerlings in this recipe. ~fyi~.
- Feel free to use any single vegetable or a mixture of your favorites. Cookgirl says that a mixture of root vegetables is the way to go!
- Peel the root vegetables then chop up into golf-ball sized pieces, place in salted boiling water and cook until very tender.
- Drain in a colander.
- Place the vegetables back in the pan and mash with a potato masher.
- You can mash them as smooth or as chunky as you like. Season with salt and pepper, then enrich the flavor with extra virgin oil or butter, or both, to taste. (I prefer using both olive oil and butter.).
- Jamie continues to say: once cooked, the mashed vegetables can be kept warm in a bowl covered with kitchen foil over simmering water. This is handy when cooking for a dinner party -- (especially when timing is of utmost importance.).

Tips:
- Choose the right root vegetables: For the best flavor and texture, choose root vegetables that are fresh, firm, and blemish-free. Some good options include carrots, parsnips, turnips, and rutabagas.
- Peel and chop the vegetables evenly: This will help them cook evenly. If the vegetables are not peeled, be sure to scrub them well to remove any dirt or debris.
- Cook the vegetables in a flavorful liquid: This could be water, broth, or a combination of both. Adding herbs, spices, or other seasonings to the liquid will also help to enhance the flavor of the vegetables.
- Cook the vegetables until they are tender: But not mushy. The cooking time will vary depending on the type of vegetable and the size of the pieces.
- Mash the vegetables until smooth: You can use a potato masher, a food processor, or an immersion blender. If you want a smoother puree, you can strain the mashed vegetables through a fine-mesh sieve.
- Season the mashed vegetables to taste: Add salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings to taste. You can also add a dollop of butter, a drizzle of olive oil, or some grated Parmesan cheese for extra flavor.
Conclusion:
Mashed root vegetables are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are a good source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. And they are also relatively inexpensive and easy to make. So next time you are looking for a healthy and flavorful side dish, give mashed root vegetables a try. You won't be disappointed!
