chilli and herb crushed swede and carrots

Side Serves 4 25 min
Check how hot your fresh chillies are by nibbling on the narrow end (the least hot part). Soak them in boiling water for 20-30 minutes to soften before using. If you're not a fan of chillies, this swede and carrot combination is great with just lots of freshly milled salt and pepper.
