Recipe: Swede garlic mash
Here’s an easy side dish that goes well with anything you would normally pair potato mash with.
And here’s a mini-tutorial on how to deal with garlic in a quick and easy way. Refer to the numbers in the photo below.
- Separate cloves from the bulb.
- Chop the rough end (bottom end in photo).
- Split clove in half.
- Peel clove (this will be very easy now) and remove germ (that green stem in the middle, which is the cause of gut discomfort).
