Mashed Potato Recipe ✓ Neeps and Tatties

When we went over to Edinburgh for Hogmanay, our friends made this for us, along with a slice of haggis! This is a traditional Scottish side dish, and goes well with a beef roast or chicken. It is also a great way to use an often overlooked vegetable: the swede (aka the yellow turnip, the rutabaga, or the Swedish turnip).

Ingredients

• 2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
• 2 pounds swede (rutabaga), peeled and cubed
• ¼ cup butter, softened
• 1 teaspoon mustard powder
• 1 bunch scallions, finely chopped
• salt and ground black pepper to taste

Cooking Directions

1. Place potatoes and swede in a large pot; cover with water. Bring to a boil. Cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain. Add butter and mustard powder; mash until well incorporated.
2. Stir scallions, salt, and pepper into the mash.
