Ingredients
  

  • 5 medium parsnips 1 pound, peeled & chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 medium cauliflower 2 pounds, broken into pieces, including the cores
  • 5 cloves Roasted Garlic
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil more for drizzling
  • ½ tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • ½ to 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 heaping teaspoon minced rosemary
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Tip: roast the garlic in advance and store any extra cloves in the freezer.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and boil the parsnips and cauliflower for 10 to 12 minutes or until fork tender. Transfer to a blender.
  • Add the roasted garlic to the blender along with the olive oil, lemon juice, ½ teaspoon of salt, and a pinch of pepper. Blend, using the blender baton to push down the contents, and blend to a smooth consistency. If necessary, add a bit of water or broth to get the blender moving, but do so sparingly so the puree doesn’t become too thin. Taste and add the additional ½ teaspoon of salt, if desired.
  • Transfer to a serving bowl and stir in the rosemary while the mash is still warm. Add a drizzle of olive oil, more pepper, if desired, and serve hot.
