Turnip Mashed Potatoes

This may be one of the easiest and tastiest ways to re-intorduce turnips to your diet...

6 large red new potatoes, skin on
2 large turnips, peeled
1/2 cup cream, heated
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter, melted
1/2 cup sour cream
Salt and pepper
Slice potatoes and turnips 1/4-inch thick. Cook in boiling water for 15 minutes or until fork-tender. Drain. Whip unpeeled cooked potatoes and turnips with electric mixer, mixing until moderately smooth (don't overbeat them; a few lumps are nice). Add hot cream, butter, and sour cream. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Whip again until blended. Adjust thickness by adding more cream, if desired.

OK, for even more deliciousness, braise the potatoes and turnips together with the cream, butter, and salt. When tender, mash, whip, and stir in sour cream. OR substitute cream cheese for the sour cream. Endless possibilities.
