My new favourite mash. This is fabulous with the brisket and also great with roast chicken.

6 parsnips, peeled and cut into chunks

¼ cup cubed butter

½ cup whipping cream

2 tablespoons prepared wasabi

Salt and freshly ground pepper

Cook parsnips in salted water over medium-high heat for 12 to 15 minutes or until tender. Drain and purée in a food processor while still warm.

Remove from processor and stir in butter, cream and wasabi. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serves 6.
