Ready In: 60 Minutes
Servings: 6
Ingredients:
2 1/2 lb yellow-fleshed potatoes such as yukon gold
3 lb turnips or rutabagas, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons horseradish cream or drained bottled horseradish, or to taste
2 to 4 teaspoons sugar
1/2 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Directions:
1. Cover potatoes with salted cold water by 2 inches in a large pot and simmer, uncovered, until very tender, 20 to 30 minutes (depending on size of potatoes). Drain potatoes in a colander and, when just cool enough to handle, peel. Transfer potatoes to a bowl.

3. Drain turnips in colander and immediately add to warm potatoes, then mash with butter and horseradish. Season with sugar (to taste), salt, and pepper and stir in parsley.
