INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare the vegetables. Have a medium-size saucepan of boiling salted
water. Add the potatoes and cook until tender, about 12 to 15 minutes. Lift
out, letting them drain well, and peel. Set aside. Add the diced carrots
and cook until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Scoop out with a strainer or
slotted spoon and set aside. Add the peas and cook until barely tender,
about 3 minutes; remove and drain.
In a large bowl, mash the potatoes with a potato masher. Add the crema and
mix to combine. Add the egg and mustard, continuing to beat until the
mixture is smooth and fluffy.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a medium-size skillet, melt the butter over medium high heat until
fragrant and sizzling but not browned. Add the onion and garlic and cook,
stirring for 3 minutes, until the onion is translucent. Add the parsley,
cook for 1 minute longer, and beat the mixture into the mashed potatoes.
Stir in the diced carrots, peas, pickled onion, olives, and jalapenos.
Taste for seasoning and add the pepper and optional salt. Transfer the
mixture to a buttered 2-quart baking dish and bake 20 minutes. Serve at
once.

A Message from our Provider:
“Our hopelessness and our helplessness are no barrier to (God’s) work. Indeed our utter incapacity is often the prop He delights to use for His next act… We are facing one of the principles of Yahweh’s modus operandi. When His people are without strength, without resources, without hope, without human gimmicks – then He loves to stretch forth His hand from heaven. Once we see where God often begins we will understand how we may be encouraged. #Ralph Davis”
