I took SusieQusie suggestion and made to fit serve size wise - I used 6 ounzes carrots and 9 ounzes of Carisma potatoes (low GI potatoes) and then followed through with the butter (1 tablespoon) milk (2 tablesploons appoximately), nutmeg (a sprinkle) and a grind of salt and pepper and came up with a mash that 3 of us enjoyed and polished of, thank you SusieQusie, made for I Recommend tag game and recommended by AZPARZYCH.

Tasty and satisfying. I made a half batch with a little extra potato. I did have to add a fair amount more salt and pepper than the recipe called for and I added some garlic powder. More butter would be good, too. Like **Mandy** I found the carrots didn't mash well using a hand-held masher. I didn't mind that too much, but it made for more marbled appearance rather than a golden appearance.

I thought I'd try this as a way to get my toddler DD to eat carrots, it didn't work unfortunately my hubby wasn't to taken with this either. I thought this was quite nice but the carrots didn't mash in a smooth as I would have liked by using just a hand masher. I think that to get a smoother consistency a mix master would need to be used. Loved the touch of nutmeg though.
