📝 Instructions

7 steps
1

Peel the swede using a vegetable peeler and chop it into 2 cm cubes.

2

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the swede cubes and boil for 25-30 minutes, or until the swede is fork-tender.

3

Drain the swede and return it to the pot. Allow it to sit for 1-2 minutes to let any excess moisture evaporate.

4

Add the butter and mash the swede using a potato masher or a fork until smooth (or leave it slightly chunky, depending on your preference).

5

Stir in the double cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if necessary.

6

Transfer the mashed swede to a serving dish and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.

7

Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy!
