Have you tried Aunt Bessie's carrot and swede mash? it's gorgeous!

Honey darlin' - try sweet potato, parsnip and celeriac mash. Chop & cook 'em in your steamer, then empty into a mixing bowl, add a knob of butter and mash down - its truly delightful!!!

Sounds delish, never think of mashing sweet potato or parsnip, usually roast them, but must give it a try for a change.
