Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large russet potatoes
- 2 medium carrots
- 1 medium rutabaga
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.25 cups heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chives (optional, finely chopped)
Instructions
Peel the potatoes, carrots, and rutabaga, and cut them into evenly sized chunks (about 1 inch).
Place the potatoes, carrots, and rutabaga into a large pot and cover them with cold water.
Bring the pot to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until all the vegetables are fork-tender.
Drain the vegetables in a colander and let them sit for a minute to allow excess moisture to evaporate.
Return the drained vegetables to the pot and add the butter, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper.
Mash the vegetables together using a potato masher or a hand mixer until smooth and well combined. Adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Transfer the clapshot to a serving bowl and garnish with finely chopped chives, if using.
Serve warm as a side dish to your favorite main course, such as roasted meats or stews.
