Home Style Mashed Potatoes With Peas Carrots Spinach Recipes

Steps:

• Boil the vegetables separately in salted water until very tender, 5 to 7 minutes, then drain. In one of the pans you used for boiling, mash the carrots well with the butter, saffron and lemon zest, then add the potatoes and mash well. Thin with milk or crème fraîche and add salt to taste - don't be shy about it.

Steps:

• Scrub potatoes, and put in a pot with water to cover. Cover pot, and cook until fork-tender, about 20 minutes, depending on size.
• Chop whole onion. Saute onion in a nonstick pan in very hot oil over medium-high heat, until it begins to soften and brown.
• Mince garlic, and add to onion as it cooks.
• Wash spinach; remove tough stems, and cook spinach in covered pot in the water clinging to it, until it wilts, 4 or 5 minutes, stirring once or twice.
• Stir peas into onion mixture and cook 2 or 3 minutes.
• When spinach is cooked, drain it, thoroughly pressing the water out. Cut up and add to cooked onion, along with nutmeg and yogurt.
• When potatoes are cooked, drain and cut into bite-size pieces and stir into spinach mixture. Season with salt and pepper, and serve.

Steps:
