Dutch “Hutspot” (potato carrot mash)

• Peel the potatoes and cut them in pieces of about the same size.
• Peel the carrots and cut them in large chunks.
• Peel and chop the onions.
• Rinse the potato and carrot chunks, and put them together with the chopped onions in a large pan (you should have at least a couple of cm of room for boiling and mashing).
• Add enough water to the pan to boil the ingredients.
• Add 1 some salt, cover the pan but allow the steam to escape and bring to a boil over high heat.
• Reduce to medium heat and continue boiling for20 minutes until the potatoes are soft.
• Place the “rookworst” in its plastic wrapper in the pan with carrot potato mix for the last 10 minutes.
• Drain and add the butter and milk.
• Mash the carrot potato mixture with a potato masher. If you like some carrot chunks, don’t mash too much.
• Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
• Serve the “Hutspot” with the heated “Rookworst”. If you don’t like the “Rookworst”, you can serve the “Hutspot” wit a meatball.

Serve with gravy and “eet smakelijk”!
