Welcome to Mum&sons

My two eldest boys challenged me to start a cooking blog with simple recipes that we can cook together - and my youngest one has now joined in. I am hoping they pick up some cooking and photograph skills... or that at least they learn to design and run a blog.


Mashed vegetables

This is way too simple, but my children just loved mashing the veg. They would have gone through kilos of potatoes and carrots if we had them. We also tried with potatoes and spinach and they liked not only mashing but also, surprisingly, eating them.
You need :
5 potatoes
4 carrots
25 gr butter
2 tablespoons double cream or creme fraiche
salt,
olive oil
water
Boil the potatoes and carrots (together) in salty water. When they are very soft, drain the water, add the butter and cream and mash the whole lot. Drizzle the olive oil on top... and done.
