"My DH bought me a recipe book by one of my favorite Chefs "Colin Fassnidge". This is a dish by that often forgotten and humble vegetable the swede, one vegetable which I love, and over the winter I will be making this one for sure. For me this will probably be a meal in itself! NOTE: A mandolin is best used for the slicing."
