MASHED SWEET POTATOES WITH MAPLE AND BROWN BUTTER



Mashed Sweet Potatoes With Maple and Brown Butter image

This recipe is a grown-up take on sweet potatoes with brown sugar and marshmallows. A generous swirl of browned butter and maple syrup give the potatoes an earthy sweetness and great depth of flavor, while salted, toasted pecans sprinkled on top add a savory crunch. To save time on Thanksgiving, toast the pecans and make the brown butter up to a day in advance. Simply store the pecans in an airtight container, and the brown butter in the refrigerator. (Gently melt the butter in the microwave before using.)

Categories     dinner, vegetables, side dish

Time 35m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
3/4 cup raw pecans (optional)
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
10 tablespoons unsalted butter (1¼ sticks)
1/2 cup whole milk
3 tablespoons maple syrup, plus more to taste
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, plus more to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the sweet potatoes and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, for about 15 to 20 minutes, until very tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Meanwhile, toast the pecans (optional): Place the pecans in a medium sauté pan. Cook over medium-low heat, tossing often, for 3 to 5 minutes, until lightly toasted. Transfer to a cutting board, and roughly chop. Sprinkle generously with salt, and set aside. Wipe out the pan with a paper towel.
  • In the same pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Cook, watching carefully and stirring occasionally with a silicone spatula, until brown bits appear and the butter gives off a nutty aroma, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat immediately. Carefully pour the melted butter into a small heatproof bowl, scraping the pan with a spatula to get all of the brown bits. Set aside.
  • Drain the cooked potatoes, and add them to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add the milk, 3 tablespoons maple syrup, 2 teaspoons salt and pepper and mix on medium-low speed until the potatoes are creamy and smooth. Add the reserved brown butter and mix until just incorporated.
  • Transfer the potatoes to a shallow serving bowl, sprinkle with the reserved pecans, and drizzle with maple syrup. Serve warm. (The potatoes may be kept warm, covered, in a low oven for up to 30 minutes. Add the pecans just before serving.)

SWEET POTATOES WITH BOURBON AND BROWN SUGAR



Sweet Potatoes With Bourbon and Brown Sugar image

These silky mashed sweet potatoes are spiced with cloves, nutmeg and a little black pepper, brightened with lemon zest, and spiked with bourbon (or orange juice, if you'd prefer). Puréeing them in a food processor yields the smoothest, airiest texture, but for something a little more rustic, you could mash them by hand. Whichever you choose, these reheat well, either in a microwave or in a pot over low heat.

Categories     dinner, casseroles, vegetables, side dish

Time 4h

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes, pricked with a fork (10 to 12 sweet potatoes)

1 1/2 tablespoons bourbon or orange juice
3/4 teaspoon grated lemon zest
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Large pinch of ground cloves

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Wrap potatoes in foil, place on a rimmed baking sheet, and bake until tender, about 1 hour. Let rest until cool enough to handle but still warm, then remove the foil and peel off the skins.
  • Add sweet potatoes to a food processor, along with butter, brown sugar, bourbon or juice, lemon zest, salt, nutmeg, pepper and cloves. Purée until smooth. (Or, for a chunkier texture, mash them by hand.) Taste and add salt, sugar or both if you like. Serve while still warm or reheat before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: For the best results, select firm and evenly sized sweet potatoes. This will ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Pierce the potatoes: Before baking, pierce the potatoes with a fork several times. This will help them to cook evenly and prevent them from bursting.
  • Bake the potatoes until tender: Bake the potatoes until they are tender when pierced with a fork. This usually takes about 45-60 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes.
  • Scoop out the potato flesh: Once the potatoes are cooked, scoop out the flesh into a large bowl. Be careful not to scoop out the skin, as this can make the mash bitter.
  • Add the brown sugar: Add the brown sugar to the potato flesh and mix until well combined. This will give the mash a sweet and caramelized flavor.
  • Add the butter and milk: Add the butter and milk to the potato mixture and mix until well combined. This will make the mash smooth and creamy.
  • Season to taste: Season the mash with salt, pepper, and nutmeg to taste. You can also add other spices or herbs, such as cinnamon, ginger, or allspice.
