Rotmos with Salt Pork

Weeknight-friendly Scandinavian cooking: Rotmos with Salt Pork comes together in 60 minutes with rutabaga, carrots, and not much else. The macros do the talking: 10g protein, 21g carbs, and 56g fat in every 624-calorie serving. Simple enough for a Tuesday, good enough to serve to guests — that is the whole idea.

Ingredients

• 2 lb Rutabaga
• 1 lb Carrots
• 1 lb Potatoes
• 1 lb Pork belly
• 4 tbsp Butter
• 1/2 cup Heavy cream
• 2 tbsp Dijon mustard

Steps

1. Boil the rutabaga, carrots, and potatoes together until completely tender — rotmos means mashed root, no al dente.
2. Drain well and mash with butter and cream until smooth but not gluey.
3. Crisp the salt pork in a dry pan until the edges crackle.
4. Serve the mash with the pork scattered over and mustard on the side; humble roots, glorious plate.
5. A spoonful of lingonberry jam on the side cuts the richness — the Swedes put it next to everything for a reason.
