INSTRUCTIONS
My favorite comes from Jacques Pepin's "Simple and Healthy Cooking" -
Remove any eyes or damaged areas from the potatoes with a parking
knife. Peel the potatoes and cut them into 2 inch chunks. Place the
potatoes, carrots and garlic in a large saucepan and add enough water
to just cover the vegetables by 1/2 inch. Bring the water to a boil
over high heat, then reduce the heat to ow, cover and cook until the
vegetables are soft. Drain, retaining the liquid. (You should have 1/2
cup of liquid; if you have more, return the liquid to the saucepan and
boil it until it is reduced to 1/2 cup.) Place the vegetables and the
cooking liquid in the bowl of a food processor (or blender) with the
butter, salt and pepper. Process briefly, just until combined. (small
carrot chunks aout 1/4 inch - should still be visible.) Serve Per
