This was a common vegetable dish in our house growing up. It’s perfect for frugal-minded households concerned about nutrition, and that description fits Mom exactly.
Carrots are one of the cheapest vegetables out there, and loaded with nutrients besides. Turnips are also very nutritious and budget-conscious, and their tangy flavor blends with the sugary sweetness of the carrots to make for an interesting and tasty combination.
This dish is also very versatile in terms of flavoring. I like it with just some salt and pepper and just a little butter or margarine, but you can add whatever spices or flavorings to the mash that appeal to you or offer a nice accompaniment to the rest of the meal. Mace, ginger, cumin, and curry are just some possibilities that lend this dish different taste accents to suit any entrée.
