- 1/2 tbsp. coarse Himalayan pink salt
- 4 1/2 cups rutabaga, peeled and cubed tips & tricks
- 4 1/2 cups carrots, peeled and cubed
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/4 tsp. garlic salt, or more to taste
- freshly ground black pepper, to taste (I always use mixed peppercorns)
- 1 tbsp. chopped parsley, for garnish tips & tricks
In a large pot, add some coarse sea salt before adding carrots and rutabaga; cover with cold water to 2-inches above the vegetables. Stir to mix, cover and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to medium-high and offset the lid; cook until tender, about 30 to 35 minutes.
Drain the vegetables in a colander and return them to the pot. Mash them until nice and fluffy.
Add butter, garlic salt and freshly ground black pepper; taste and adjust if necessary. Sprinkle parsley on top and serve immediately.
