Parsnip and carrot smash


-serves 4
2 medium carrots, peeled and 2 cm dice
1 medium parsnip, peeled and 2 cm dice
 You need about 400g altogether of carrot and parsnip
2 Tablespoons of butter
Salt and pepper

Method
Put the carrot and parsnip in a medium pot with some salt and fill with water until the vegetables are covered. Cook on high until boiling then turn down to medium heat so it doesn’t boil over. Cook for 15-20 minutes until tender. You should be easily be able to put a knife through a piece. If in doubt take the biggest piece out and taste it. When done strain the water out using the pot lid to hold the vegetable in, or you can use a colander (put the vegetables back to the pot) Add the butter and season well with salt and roughly mash with potato masher, you still want to see the individual colors of the vegetables. You can fully mash if you want to.
