Method

  • step 1

    Heat the butter in a small frying pan over a low heat with the thyme and ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper until the butter begins to foam. Remove from the heat.

  • step 2

    Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil, tip in the carrots and swede and simmer for 30-40 mins until tender. Mash well. While still hot, stir through the butter and serve. Will keep chilled for up to two days or frozen for up to a month.

question

If you were freezing this would you add the brown butter and then freeze or is it best to freeze the mash only and add brown butter just before serving? Thanks!

Hi, thanks for your question. For best results you can make the brown butter just before serving, however it would be perfectly fine to freeze with the butter if needed. We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.

question

If you were to make this in advance, how should you reheat it?

Hi, thanks for your question. We'd reheat it in the microwave. Alternatively it could be reheated in a saucepan or even in the oven (the latter will give a slightly crispy top). We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.
