Black garlic mash

Something delicious on the side. I used Garlic Noir from Marlborough Garlic.

Ingredients

400 g	Potatoes, peeled (Main)
400 g	Parsnips, peeled
1 tsp	Salt
50 g	Butter
1 cup	Milk
½ cup	Black garlic cloves, chopped (Main)

Garnish

2 Tbsp	Chopped parsley
75 g	Feta cheese, crumbled (optional)
2 cloves	Black garlic, diced

Directions

1. Place the potatoes and parsnips in a saucepan of cold water. Bring to the boil, add the salt and cover and cook until soft.
2. Meanwhile, gently heat the butter, milk and black garlic together for 5 minutes. Do not boil. Purée with a stick blender until smooth.
3. Drain the potato/parsnip mixture and mash until smooth. Strain the hot liquid into the mash. Mix until smooth and light. Place in a serving dish. Top with the chopped parsley, feta cheese and diced black garlic.
