MASHED SWEET POTATOES WITH MAPLE SYRUP



Mashed Sweet Potatoes with Maple Syrup image

Categories     Side     Christmas     Thanksgiving     Kid-Friendly     Sweet Potato/Yam     Fall     Winter     Maple Syrup     Bon Appétit     Small Plates

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 1/4 pounds red-skinned sweet potatoes (yams), peeled, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom

Steps:

  • Cook potatoes in pot of boiling salted water until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain. Return potatoes to pot; mash. Mix in butter, syrup and cardamom. Season with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for firm, unblemished sweet potatoes that are about the same size. Avoid any that are soft or have bruises.
  • Prick the potatoes before baking: This helps the steam escape and prevents the potatoes from bursting.
  • Bake the potatoes until they are tender: The potatoes should be easy to pierce with a fork when they are done.
  • Let the potatoes cool slightly before handling: This will help prevent them from breaking apart.
  • Use a potato ricer or masher to get a smooth, lump-free mash: Be sure to mash the potatoes while they are still hot.
  • Add your favorite seasonings and ingredients: Some popular additions include butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, maple syrup, and marshmallows.

Conclusion:

Emeril's Sweet Potato Mash is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a side dish or a main course. It is also a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes.
