Mashed Buttermilk Potatoes and Celery Root

Bet no one will guess the secret ingredient - celery root. These creamy mashed potatoes go great with roast chicken, beef or pork.

Preparation Time: 10 Minutes
Cooking Time: 15 Minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients:

• 2 lb (1 kg) Ontario Potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes (5 or 6 potatoes)
• Half small Ontario Celery Root, peeled and cut into chunks
• 2 cloves Ontario Garlic
• 3 tbsp (45 mL) butter
• 1/2 tsp (2 mL) salt
• 1/2 to 3/4 cup (125 to 175 mL) buttermilk

Preparation:
In large saucepan, combine potatoes, celery root and garlic. Fill pan with just enough salted water to cover vegetables. Bring to boil over high heat; reduce heat and simmer, partially covered, until vegetables are very tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain well.
Return vegetables and garlic to saucepan; set over low heat. Mash with butter and salt. Add 1/2 cup (125 mL) buttermilk; mash until as smooth as desired. For creamier potatoes, add remaining buttermilk.
