Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut in 1-inch chunks
1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons light coconut milk
1 tablespoon red curry paste
2 to 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons apple cider
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, in small cubes
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Place potatoes in a large pot of salted water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and cook until potatoes are tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Drain and return to pan. Dry over low heat 2 minutes. Meanwhile, combine 3 tablespoons coconut milk and curry paste in a medium saucepan; cook over medium-high heat 2 minutes. Add remaining 1/2 cup coconut milk, 2 tablespoons maple syrup and apple cider. Bring to a boil, and simmer, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes more. While sauce is simmering, mash potatoes with a fork or potato masher. Stir in hot coconut milk mixture, butter, salt and cinnamon. Add remaining 1 tablespoon maple syrup if desired. (If you want a bit less heat, reduce the amount of red curry paste to 2 teaspoons)

Tips:

  • Choose firm and ripe sweet potatoes for the best texture.
  • Pierce the sweet potatoes with a fork before microwaving to ensure even cooking.
  • Use a food processor or blender to achieve a smooth and creamy mashed texture.
  • Adjust the amount of red curry paste to your desired spice level.
  • For a richer flavor, use coconut milk instead of water.
  • Garnish with fresh cilantro, chopped peanuts, or a squeeze of lime for added flavor and color.
