Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Trim off the ends of the carrots and scrape them. Cut carrots into 1-inch lengths.

  2. Step 2

    Peel potatoes and cut them into 2-inch cubes. Place carrots, potatoes and onions in a saucepan; add cold water to cover and salt to taste. Bring to a boil, and simmer for 20 minutes or until tender. Do not overcook, or they will be watery and mushy.

  3. Step 3

    Drain carrots and potatoes, and put through a food mill or potato ricer. Return to a clean saucepan.

  4. Step 4

    Add the white pepper and butter, and blend well with a wooden spatula. Place over heat, and add the warm milk and the chopped parsley or chives, beating rapidly with a wooden spoon. Serve immediately.
