Potato, Celeriac & Parsnip Mash With Leek Frizzle

"This is an exciting alternative to basic mashed potatoes and makes an interesting and attractive side dish to any kind of meat, poultry or fish. The celery root adds a wonderfully distinct flavour. I suggest using the chicken stock and always, always use the fresh herbs. This recipe is from the LCBO Food and Drink magazine."
