POTATO AND CARROT PUREE
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.

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.
