Smashed Parsnips and Potatoes with Thyme image

Parsnips give this rustic mash a nutty sweetness. Warm olive oil and thyme add more flavor (and dispense with the need for butter).

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1/2 pound parsnips, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 pounds baby Yukon Gold potatoes, quartered
1 tablespoon plus 1 1/2 teaspoons thyme leaves

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook parsnips with 1/4 teaspoon salt for 5 minutes. Add potatoes and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt; cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer until parsnips and potatoes are very tender but still hold their shape, 12 to 14 minutes.
  • Drain parsnips and potatoes. Return empty saucepan to high heat, allowing any remaining water to evaporate. Add remaining 3 tablespoons oil and the thyme. Cook until thyme starts to sizzle, about 1 minute. Add parsnips and potatoes, and smash with the back of a wooden spoon until combined but still chunky. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with oil.

I'm not a big fan of parsnips, but I really enjoyed this dish. The parsnips were roasted until they were soft and caramelized, and the thyme added a lovely flavor.
