Parsnip & Sweet Potato Purée

This creamy side dish goes well with rack of lamb or roast turkey.

Makes 3 cups / 6 half-cup servings

11⁄2pounds parsnips, peeled and cut into 3⁄4- to 1-inch pieces

1⁄2pound sweet potato, peeled and cut into 3⁄4- to 1-inch pieces

1small onion (3 ounces), peeled and cut into 3⁄4- to 1-inch pieces

1⁄2teaspoon kosher salt

1⁄2cup half-and-half or light cream

2tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 1⁄2-inch pieces, room temperature

1⁄8teaspoon freshly ground white pepper

Put parsnips, sweet potato, and onion pieces in a 3-quart nonreactive saucepan and cover with water by 1 inch. Add 1Ú4 teaspoon of the salt to the water. Bring to the boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium- high and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 10 to 15 minutes.

When vegetables are tender, remove from heat. Drain and return to cooking pan. Add half-and-half and butter. Insert the hand blender into the cooked vegetables, making certain the protective guard is sub- merged in the vegetables. Blend on Low, using a gentle up-and-down motion, moving the hand blender through the pan, until ingredients are well blended, smooth and creamy, about 50 to 60 seconds. Season with the remaining 1Ú4 teaspoon salt and the white pepper. Serve hot. If

Tips:

Change the flavor by adding a few cloves of peeled fresh garlic or slices of fresh peeled ginger to the water when cooking.

Make a heart-healthy version by substituting chicken or vegetable stock for the half-and-half, and extra virgin olive oil for the butter

(do not add fresh ginger to this version).
