- 1.5 kg root vegetables e.g. swede, parsnip and carrot

Peel the root vegetables and cut into 2 inch pieces.
Place them into a pan of salted boiling water and cook until very tender (roughly 15 - 20 minutes).
Drain the root vegetables using a colander then place back over the pan and let the residual heat dry out the vegetables.
Tip the vegetables back into the pan and mash until smooth.
Season with a generous helping of salt, pepper and butter.
