Potato and Turnip Purée Recipe

Potato and Turnip Purée

Homemakers Best Tested
By
Andrew Chase
This delicious blend of potatoes and white turnips can replace the mashed potatoes on your holiday table. They have a finer consistency and are more moist than regular mashed potatoes.

Ingredients

2 lbs  (1 kg)  potatoes, peeled and quartered
2 lbs  (1 kg)  white turnips, peeled and quartered
1 white onion, chopped
1 tsp  (5 mL)  salt (approx)
1/3 cup  (75 mL)  10% cream, heated
2 tbsp  (30 mL)  butter
1/4 tsp  (1 mL)  white pepper

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.
