Parsnip potato purée

The slightly nutty, sweet flavour of parsnip imparts a new note to a root vegetable purée, a companion to traditional potato in this recipe.

Parsnip is a member of the carrot family. It is just as diverse as any root vegetable for all dishes. It’s known as a vegetable for making stock for soups, but it also works wonderfully in stews, veggie burgers, pastries and even just on its own.
