Parsnip and Celery Root Mash image

These are two vegetables that are usually dead cheap at the market, but not enough people know what to do with them. The parsnips can be peeled and cut just like carrots, but the tough skin and larger size of the celery root (aka celeraic) requires a big knife. This is a favourite in my home, where we serve it as a substitute for mashed potatoes. I like a coarse mash and use a regular potato masher, but you can use a stick blender for a smoother purée.

This mash was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some garlic and herbs to give it more flavor. Next time, I'll try roasting the parsnips and celery root before mashing them.
