Chortlepuss Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I want to make some Cornish pasties. Not seen any swede here - is there anything anyone would recommend as a substitute? What about some of those yam things I see at the market?? Swede seems an essential ingredient........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louisajane Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I was able to buy turnip at the local Woolworths, its not authentic Cornish much to my sons disgust but pretty good all the same ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penelope Pitstop Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Plenty of swede available in South Australia - the other day I bought a soup pack with celery, carrot, potato, onion, swede and parsnip. Made a lovely stew! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryng67 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 You can get swede although they are the size of a UK cooking apple if your lucky they are tiny little things dont taste of much here though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whichway1 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I just replaced everything swede for butternut pumpkin. Not the same, not even similar, really, but I liked it and now I prefer it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blossom Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I buy swedes often here in SA. I have some I grew in my garden too. :-) They are often small though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith and Linda Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 You can get swede although they are the size of a UK cooking apple if your lucky they are tiny little things dont taste of much here though They are readily available, but as already said they are small, good enough for stews, but to have as a veg on a plate we mash them with carrots, gives a nice colour to the plate and a nice taste too.
