Punchnep

Punchnep is a traditional vegetable-based dish originating from Wales. The dish consists of root vegetables that are cooked, then mashed together and mixed with butter or cream. The most popular combination includes potatoes and baby white turnips, but carrots, peas, and parsnips are also often used, either separately or together with the potatoes. Before serving, the mash is often pricked with the handle of a wooden spoon, and each hole is then filled with cream before the punchnep is served hot.
