Parsnips, a tapered root vegetable, have a nutty, slightly creamy flavour. Bacon adds a smoky rustic element to this dish.

Ingredients

  • 2 bags (1 lb/500 g each) parsnips
  • 1 onion, quartered
  • 1/3 cup (75 mL)  light sour cream or plain yogurt
  • 1/2 tsp (2 ml) each salt and pepper
  • 2 tbsp (25 ml) minced fresh parsley
  • 4 stirps bacon, cooked and crumbled

Preparation

Peel parsnips; cut into 1-inch (2.5 cm) cubes. In pot of boiling salted water, cook parsnips and onion until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup (50 mL) of the cooking water.

In food processor, purée together parsnips, onion, cooking water, sour cream, salt and pepper until smooth. Transfer to warmed serving bowl. Stir in half each of the parsley and bacon. Sprinkle with remaining parsley and bacon.
