Roasting the vegetables really brings out the flavour in this carrot and swede mash recipe. The perfect accompaniment to a roast dinner and two of you five-a-day.

INGREDIENTS
- 500 g carrots - about 6 large carrots
- 500 g swede - 1 small swede
- 1 tsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
- Pre-heat the oven to 220C/200C fan.
- Wash the carrots and swede (500g each). Cut the swede in half and lay the vegetables out on a baking tray.
- Bake the carrots and swede for about an hour until soft in the centre.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly until they can be handled.
- Scoop the centre from the roasted vegetables and place into a large bowl or pan.
- Use a hand blender to whizz the vegetables until smooth (if you don't have a hand blender then you can also use a blender, masher or fork to achieve a similar effect).
- Add the olive oil (1 tsp).
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Whizz (stir) to ensure that the oil and seasoning are evenly distributed. If the mash has cooled slightly then reheat on a gentle heat on the hob until hot through.
- Serve.
NOTES
I love carrot and swede mash so for me this recipe serves 4. However, if you're also serving a lot of other vegetables then you can stretch it to 6.
