Ingredients

    4 pounds rutabagas, peeled, cut into 3/4- to 1-inch cubes
    Nonstick vegetable oil spray
    1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
    1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
    1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger
    1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
    3 firm Anjou pears (about 1 3/4 pounds), peeled, cored, cut into 3/4-inch cubes
    1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
    5 tablespoons butter
    1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
    Coarse kosher salt



Directions

Cook rutabagas in pot of boiling salted water until tender, about 35 minutes.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400°F. Spray large rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray. Combine oil, lemon juice, ginger, and sugar in large bowl. Add pears; toss to coat. Spread on prepared sheet. Roast until tender, turning pears every 10 minutes, about 35 minutes total.

Drain rutabagas; return to same pot. Mash to coarse puree. Stir over medium heat until excess moisture evaporates, 5 minutes. Add cream, butter, and thyme. Mix in pears and any juices from baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Transfer to microwave-safe bowl. Cover; chill. Rewarm at 1-minute intervals.
