Spoon the Clapshot into a warmed serving dish. Serve immediately and enjoy!
For a more intense flavor, try roasting the vegetables before boiling them.
A splash of Scotch whisky added at the end can elevate the dish.
Feel free to experiment with other root vegetables like parsnips or celeriac.
Clapshot can be made ahead of time and reheated gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.

Jan 22, 2025The key is definitely to drain the vegetables well. Mine was a bit watery the first time, but perfect the second time around!
