Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Bacon Clapshot Dish.
Step 1
Start by gathering a large saucepan and adding your quartered potatoes along with the chunks of turnip.
Step 2
Pour in enough water to cover them completely, then place the saucepan on the stove and bring it to a lively boil.
Step 3
Once you see those bubbles dancing, reduce the heat and let the mixture simmer gently for about 20 minutes, or until the potatoes and turnips are tender enough to easily pierce with a fork.
Step 4
After they’re cooked to perfection, carefully drain the water and return the warm potatoes and turnips to the saucepan.
Step 5
Now it’s time to get mashing! Use a potato masher to blend the mixture until it’s creamy and smooth.
Step 6
To elevate the flavor, add in some rich butter and a splash of milk, then beat everything together until it’s fluffy and well combined.
Step 7
For a delightful twist, fold in crumbled bacon, which adds a savory crunch.
Step 8
Finally, season your dish with a pinch of nutmeg, along with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 9
This comforting mash is sure to be a hit at your table!.
