Categories     side-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 pounds sweet potatoes or yams, (approximately 4 to 6 yams or about 12 sweet potatoes
depending on size) peeled and cut into 1 to 1 1/2-inch chunks
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks or 3/4 pound) butter, cut into cubes
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1/4 to 1/2 cup cream, as needed to achieve desired consistency
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • These potatoes can be steamed to preserve more of the flavor and vitamins (or boiled if you wish), until tender. (To steam them, you can place them in a single layer on a rack placed over a large shallow pan of water with a large pot lid to cover. Replenish water in pan if it boils off before they are tender.)
  • Place the tender potatoes in a large bowl and mash by hand with a masher or fork. Then, using a beater, whip in butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, maple syrup, and enough cream to achieve your desired consistency. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.

SPECKLED SWEET POTATO MASH



Speckled Sweet Potato Mash image

I must admit, I find it really hard to make anything without chilies and garlic, which is probably why I don't make many desserts really. This is a great spicy, savoury mash, and it isn't too bad fat-wise either. Use a flavoured cream cheese or greek yogurt if you prefer

SWEET POTATO MASH

A delicious, creamy low calorie alternative to the more traditional white potato mash recipes which apparently is popular at many health spas. And you don't have to peel the sweet potatoes! Now that's a plus when time is scarce! Adapted from a recipe from the Spa at Doral, which I found in Prevention Healthy Cooking's 'Eat up; Slim down: tried-and-true recipes from real weight-loss winners' by Jane Kirby and David Joachim.
