Root Vegetable Mash With Caramelized Onions Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare the carrots and parsnips for cooking and add to a large saucepan. (Though the original recipe called for peeled carrots, I prefer not to peel.) Add water to cover vegetables and bring the pot to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes until the carrots and parsnips are tender.
• While the carrots and parsnips are cooking, melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring often until the onions ae cooked and a golden brown, about 6 to 8 minutes. If you are using the sugar, add now. Add the thyme. Reduce the heat to low and continue cooking another 6 minutes. If the pan seems too dry (onions are sticking), add a teaspoon of the cooking broth from the carrots and parsnips. Onions should be nicely browned and barely holding their shape.
• Add drained chickpeas, to the onions and cook until warmed through, about 3 minutes.
• Drain the carrots and parsnips, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid. Keep warm. Using an immersion blender, counter blender or food processor puree the carrots & parsnips with the salt, pepper and nutmeg and 1/3 cup of cooking liquid. If they are too thick for your tastes, add additional cooking liquid.
• To assemble the dish, serve a portion of the carrots and parsnips mounding down a center. Place a portion of the onions and chickpeas in the center well. Alternately, you can serve family-style with a mound of the mash int he center with a ring of the onions and chickpeas around the outside.
