Wonderful recipe. We served it with a cornbread and sausage stuffed crown of pork for Christmas dinner. The parsnips gave it a slight sweetness which even the grandkids loved.

This is a great recipe. It has become my got-to mashed potatoes recipe. I throw a couple of cloves of garlic into the water and put everything through a ricer before adding the dairy. So good.

So easy. Delicious.

Don’t worry about quantities: 2 good size parsnips with 6-8 Yukon gold potatoes is fine. Cook parsnips in a little salty water ; then add potatoes more water salt. . When ready, mash & add Creme Fraiche and finely chopped green onion. Bingo.
