½ tsp (2.5 ml) fine salt

Instructions
Bring a saucepan of salted water to the boil. Boil the carrots for 1 minute and then refresh in some cold water.

Place a layer of the carrot and potato mixture into a baking dish. Pour one third of the cream mixture over this layer and scatter half of the chives onto the vegetables.
