Scottish Clapshot Recipe

on

Portions: 1-infinity!  Depends on how much mash and swede you have...

Ingredients

  • Potatoes
  • Neeps (Swede)
  • Small Onion
  • Chives
  • Butter
  • Salt & Pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare equal amounts of potato and neep (swede) and cut in to small chunks and put them in a suitable saucepan (I've already got some leftover mash so I've only put in swede in this photo

      

  2. Cover the potatoes and neeps with water and boil them until soft enough to mash



  3. Dice the onion and fry it gently in some butter until it's nice and soft and then put to one side



  4. When the potatoes and swede have been mashed, add the onion and give it a good mix, as the onion was fried in butter your mash will already start to be creamy - add as much butter as you like and mix it in



  5. When you're happy with the consistency of the mashed potatoes and swede, sprinkle in some chives until it looks something like this



  6. When you've dished it up, don't for get to sprinkle some chives on top.


Serving Suggestion(s)

A side helping of runner beans, lamb and some gravy goes very well with this side dish!
