FLUFFY MASHED SWEET POTATOES AND CARROTS

Steps:

• Rinse, peel, and chop potatoes and carrots into large bite-sized pieces (see photo) and add to a large pot or Dutch oven. Cover with water by about 1 inch to ensure they're submerged.
• Bring water to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, slightly reduce heat to medium-high and continue cooking at a slightly less rapid boil for about 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes and carrots are very tender (they should easily fall off a knife when pierced).
• Drain carrots and potatoes and add back to the pot (or to a food processor or blender for a whipped purée effect). Add butter of choice, minced garlic, ginger, turmeric, and sea salt to taste. Mash (or purée) until smooth. We found a food processor to give the creamiest texture, but mashing works fine, too (it just leaves a bit more texture).
• Add more butter (or a bit of water) as needed to get creamy and smooth. Taste and adjust flavor as needed, adding more butter for creaminess, spices to taste, or sea salt to taste.
• Serve hot. Garnish with additional butter of choice, fresh parsley, and salt and pepper (all optional). Store cooled leftovers in the refrigerator up to 4-5 days.
