Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1 lb Rutabagas Salt
2/3 lb Carrots Freshly ground black pepper
2/3 lb Red-skinned potatoes 1 tb Minced parsley (opt)
3 tb Butter

(From "More Vegetables, Please" by Janet Fletcher. Harlow and Ratner,
Emeryville, California; $16.95, 1992)

Peel the rutabagas, removing all traces of the thick skin. Cut them
into 1/2" cubes. Peel the carrots and slice them about 1/2" thick.
Scrub the potatoes well but do not peel them; cut them into pieces
about the same size as the rutabagas.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the
rutabagas and cook 5 minutes, then add the remaining vegetables and
cook until they are soft enough to mash but not mushy, about 15 more
minutes. Drain thoroughly in a colander.

Put the hot vegetables in a clean pot and shake the pot over moderate
heat until the vegetables are completely dry. Remove the pot from the
heat, add the butter in small pieces, and mash the vegetables gently
with a potato masher; they should be mashed, not pureed. Season to
taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to a warm serving bowl. Garnish
with parsley if desired.
