  1. I make this a lot, but instead of boiling the onions with the carrots I sautee the onions and then pour the mixture in with the boiled potatoes and carrots. Try it!
     
  2. we put a bit of a twist on this recipe.. use 2 pounds potato, 1 pound carrot, 1 pound rutabaga, and 1/2 pound each of onion and celery.. place all veggies in a large pot with 2 cups water, cook til tender, drain and mash with 2 cups sour cream.. serve with rookworst and spek (that's dutch for bacon) and plain yellow mustard
     
  3. This is almost how I make it except I don’t use evaporated milk, just use milk. Instead of spek and rookworst, we eat it with Dutch meatballs. I also used 1 lg red, 1 white onion. Classic Dutch comfort food!!
     
  4. It was nice to learn about a cuisine that I'm unfamiliar with. Also it's great that you get a starch and a vegetable in one dish. It was very nice although the onions were a bit much for me, but that could be my personal taste. Thank you.
     
  5. My mom has made this for my Grandma and Grandpa since I was little. Both of my Grandparents are from Holland and this is what my Grandpa survived on during WWII. The way my mom learned to make is from her mom (her mom passed away in the 60's) was with pot roast mashed with the potatoes, onions, and carrots. I haven't tried the other ways of making it but this way is VERY good. It's nice to have on those rainy stormy days. Kind of like comfort food. :-)
