Ingredients

Swede mash is a very good accompaniment to many traditional Norwegian dishes. Here I show a simple and very good recipe. You can choose how fine or coarse you want the stuffing with how much you mash it.

Step 1

Start by peeling off the peel of the swede and carrot. Cut into fairly equal cubes.

Step 2

Pour on unsalted water and cook until the pieces are completely tender. Pour into another bowl and save some of the boiling water. Add cream, butter, nutmeg, pepper and salt.
