Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Place the rutabaga and potatoes in a large saucepan, cover with cold, well-salted water, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes.
- Drain the water and place the pan with the vegetables over low heat. Stir in 8 tablespoons of butter. Mash the vegetables with a potato masher, press through a sieve, or press through a potato masher until smooth, adding warm cream and 2 teaspoons of salt. Keep warm while you prepare the breadcrumbs.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the remaining 4 tablespoons (60 g) butter with the olive oil. Add the lemon zest and green onions. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the parsley and bread crumbs and cook over medium heat, stirring until evenly browned, for another 3 to 4 minutes (if the bread crumbs are burning too quickly, reduce the heat).
- To serve, transfer the puree to a large shallow dish and sprinkle with breadcrumbs. Garnish with chopped green onions (to make green onion curls, thinly slice them and place them in ice water).
