Turnip & Parsnip Blend

Ingredients

• 1 medium turnip, peeled and cubed
• 2 medium parsnips, peeled and cubed

Method

1. 01

   Peel 1 medium turnip and 2 medium parsnips, then cut both into 1-inch cubes.

2. 02

   Place parsnip cubes in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 3 minutes.

3. 03

   Add turnip cubes and continue steaming for another 11-12 minutes until both are completely fork-tender.

4. 04

   Transfer to a blender with 3-4 tablespoons of steaming liquid.
