Steps
- 1
Peel the potatoes and carrots and cut them into chunks. Peel and slice the onions.

- 3
Cover and cook until everything is soft.

Drain, keeping a little of the liquid. Mash roughly with the butter and warm milk; it should stay a little chunky.

Tips and questions
- Why boil everything together?

- Does it freeze?
- Yes, for up to 3 months. Reheat in a pan with a knob of butter.
