When we went to Edinburgh for Hogmanay, our friends made this for us, along with a slice of haggis! This neeps and tatties recipe is a traditional Scottish side dish that goes well with beef roast or chicken. It is also a great way to use an often overlooked vegetable: the swede (aka yellow turnip, rutabaga, or Swedish turnip).
Ingredients
- 2 pounds russet potatoes , peeled and cubed
- 2 pounds swede , rutabaga
- 0.25 cups butter , softened
- 1 teaspoon mustard powder
- 1 bunch scallions , finely chopped
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
-
1
Place potatoes and swede in a large pot; cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain.
-
2
Mash butter and mustard powder into potatoes and swede until well incorporated. Stir in scallions, salt, and pepper.

Preserved Lemon Blueberry Pie
I love blueberry pie, but sometimes it can taste a little ...monochromatic. Here, lemon zest, lemon juice, and diced preserved lemon add a burst of bright flavor to every bite.
Blueberry and Vanilla Custard Tart
This tart may take a bit of time to assemble, but it's worth the effort! With a rich vanilla custard sitting atop a cinnamon-y shortbread crust and finished off with a fresh blueberry topping, it's sure to wow! This is also fantastic with a simple shortbread crust, so feel free to omit the cinnamon and cream of tartar from the crust, if desired. Make sure to allow for plenty of time for cooling!
Homemade Granola
This is a great recipe for homemade granola. I make it weekly! Any dried fruit can be substituted for the raisins. I use dried cranberries in mine and it's fantastic!
