Yukon Gold and Fennel Puree with Rosemary Butter

This elegant Yukon Gold and fennel purée offers a sophisticated twist on traditional mashed potatoes. By roasting the fennel and onion until caramelised and tender, you introduce a deep, mellow sweetness that perfectly complements the buttery texture of the potatoes. It is a wonderfully fragrant vegetable side dish that brings a touch of refined flavour to any Sunday roast or festive gathering.

Naturally vegetarian and incredibly comforting, this dish is enriched with a homemade rosemary butter and a dollop of crème fraîche for a silky, luxe finish. It is an excellent make-ahead option for busy hosts, as it can be prepared several hours in advance and gently reheated. Serve it alongside roasted meats or as a savoury base for grilled autumn vegetables.

How to make Yukon Gold and Fennel Puree with Rosemary Butter

Preheat oven to 191°C. Line large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine fennel, onion, oil, and 1 teaspoon sea salt in large bowl; toss.

Melt butter with rosemary and 1 teaspoon sea salt in small saucepan over medium heat. Stir butter mixture into fennel-potato puree. Mix in crème fraîche. Season to taste with more pepper and salt, if desired. DO AHEAD: Can be made 6 hours ahead. Transfer puree to large microwave-safe bowl. Cover with plastic wrap. Chill.
