Swede Casserole

Step 1: Simmer swedes in lightly salted water (in covered pan) for about 20 minutes or until tender. Drain and mash or press through a sieve with a wooden spoon.

Step 2: Add the flour and half the butter, stirring all the time, then slowly beat in the cream until the mixture is light and fluffy.

Step 3: Season to your taste with salt, pepper, nutmeg and sugar.

Step 4: Add the egg and pour the mixture into a well buttered oven proof dish. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs on top, dot with remaining butter and bake in oven at 180c for about an hour, until the top is lightly browned.
