Purê de batatas com cherívia e raiz-forte

Ingredientes

• 1 pound gold potatoes ((or other medium starch content potatoes), peeled and sliced into 1/4 inch thick rounds)
• 1 pound parsnips (, peeled and sliced into 1/4 inch thick rounds)
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (, softened at room temperature)
• 1-2 tablespoons prepared horseradish ((according to heat and flavor preference))
• 1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
• 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream (, plus more as needed)

Modo de preparo

1. 1

   Place the sliced potatoes and parsnips in a steamer (put the parsnips in first where they'll be closer to the hot steam with the potatoes on top since the parsnips require a little longer cooking time). Place the steamer on top of a pot of boiling water and cover with the lid. Steam for about 15 minutes or until the vegetables are tender when pierced with a fork.

2. 2

   Drain the pot and place the veggies in it along with the butter, salt, pepper and horseradish. Mash with a potato masher then add the cream and continue mashing until smooth, adding more cream until desired consistency is reached. Add more salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to a warmed serving bowl and serve immediately.
