I got this recipe from a cookbook magazine in England a few years ago, and started featuring it for our Christmas meals.  Although I really like parsnips, I only think to use them at Christmas.  My Mum used to roast them with the potatoes and that is still good. However, this is just a bit different.  Hope you like it, not hard to do, can be made ahead and makes a change.

Yields:  6 servings.

  • 1½ lb cleaned and sliced Leeks.
  • 1 cup milk.
  • 1½ lb peeled and quartered parsnips.
  • 6  Tbsp chopped parsley.
  • 2 garlic cloves, peeled.
  • 6 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese.

Instructions

  1. Put the leeks, parsnips and garlic in a pan of cold salted water, bring to the boil reduce heat and simmer 15-20 minutes, drain, return to the pan and dry off over low heat 3-4 minutes. 
  2. Heat the milk, and put in a food processor with the leeks, parsnips, chopped parsley, 5 Tbsp pf the Parmesan cheese, and whiz until just smooth, don’t over do it. 
  3. Put the mash into an ovenproof dish, and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. 
  4. Serve hot.
