Personal Notes:
Even though I have always loved potatoes and turnip, I had never had them mixed together, until I met Grandma Stout (Denis's grandmother) who immigrated to Canada from the Orkney Islands. Clapshot was a staple there and I love it! (she would be offended is she knew I put the country of ethnicity as Scotland. She was from the Orkney Island's (NOT SCOTLAND).
