Method

Prep the swede

Peel the Swede, trim away any rough ends, and cut it into evenly sized chunks so they cook at the same pace.

Simmer until tender

Put the swede in a large saucepan, cover it with cold water, and stir in the Salt. Bring it to a boil over high heat, then lower the heat and simmer for 20–25 minutes, or until a fork slides through the chunks easily.

Drain well

Drain the swede thoroughly in a colander, then tip it back into the warm pan and shake it for a few seconds so the steam can escape.

Mash and season

Add the Butter to the drained swede and mash until the butter melts and the texture is smooth and fluffy. Season with freshly ground Black Pepper, then taste and add a little more salt if needed. Spoon into a warm bowl and serve.
