Preparation
|
|
Place potatoes, turnips and onion in saucepan; add enough water to just cover vegetables. Season with salt. Bring to boil; reduce heat and simmer, covered, until tender, 25 to 30 minutes. Drain and return to pan; cook over low heat, shaking pan, for 2 to 3 minutes.
Put vegetables through food mill or potato ricer, or push through fine sieve; return to saucepan. Stir in cream and butter; cook, stirring, over medium-low heat until hot and enough liquid evaporates that purée can hold its shape, about 5 minutes. Stir in pepper. Season with salt to taste.
Makes 8 to 10 servings.
