Carrot and Sweet Potato Mash


Carrot and Sweet Potato Mash
Serves 3
Ingredients
  • 500g carrots , chopped
  • 500g sweet potatoes, chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, bashed
  • 25g butter

  1. Put the carrots, sweet potatoes and garlic in a large pan of salted water, bring to the boil, then cook for 12 mins. Add butter and seasoning, roughly mash, then serve immediately.






What can I say? I had carrots and garlic to use up and this seemed like a good way of doing it. I did not season the dish so it came out a little bland. Damned by faint praise, I know, I know. Still, I would probably make this as a side dish to another meal.

Carrots, 1/3 of a bag at EUR 0.99/bag = EUR 0.33 at Tesco
Garlic, 1 bulb of a package of 4 at EUR 0.89/package = EUR 0.22 at Lidl

Total Cost: EUR 1.61 for three servings or EUR 0.54 for one serving
