While the vegetables are cooking, peel and mince the garlic cloves.
Cook the carrots and swede for about 20 minutes or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
Drain the cooked vegetables thoroughly using a colander and then return them to the pan.
Add the minced garlic, olive oil, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper to the pan.
Mash the vegetables using a potato masher or an immersion blender until smooth and creamy, adjusting the seasoning if necessary.
Transfer the mash to a serving bowl and garnish with fresh parsley if using.
