Ingredients
4 to 6 large carrots (about ¾ pound)
3 to 4 Idaho or Washington potatoes (about 1 pound)
½ cup sliced onions
Salt and freshly ground white pepper to taste
2 tablespoons butter
½ cup warm milk
2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley or chives
Preparation
- Step 1
Trim off the ends of the carrots and scrape them. Cut carrots into 1-inch lengths.
- Step 2
Peel potatoes and cut them into 2-inch cubes. Place carrots, potatoes and onions in a saucepan; add cold water to cover and salt to taste. Bring to a boil, and simmer for 20 minutes or until tender. Do not overcook, or they will be watery and mushy.
- Step 3
Drain carrots and potatoes, and put through a food mill or potato ricer. Return to a clean saucepan.
- Step 4
Add the white pepper and butter, and blend well with a wooden spatula. Place over heat, and add the warm milk and the chopped parsley or chives, beating rapidly with a wooden spoon. Serve immediately.
