Provided by Claire Robinson

Categories     side-dish

Time 55m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 large sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped into rough chunks
1/4 cup grade B maple syrup, plus 2 tablespoons
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided in 1/2
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for seasoning
2 tablespoons butter
1 large Vidalia or other sweet onion, thinly sliced
Hot water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Place sweet potatoes, 1/4 cup of the maple syrup, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a large mixing bowl. Toss to evenly coat and place on sheet tray. Roast in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until sweet potatoes are soft. Be sure to check on them after 15 minutes and stir, if needed.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, melt butter and add remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the sliced onion, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Saute until deep golden brown, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside. Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if the pan becomes dry.
  • Transfer sweet potato mixture to a food processor, (may need to be done in batches) and add about a tablespoon of hot water. Pulse until just blended and then add half the caramelized onions. Pulse just a few times until desired consistency, adding more hot water for a smoother puree. Fold in remaining caramelized onions, reserving some for garnish.
  • Serve in a warm dish and garnish with the reserved caramelized onions. YUMMY!!!

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.)

CANDIED SWEET POTATOES WITH MAPLE SYRUP



Candied Sweet Potatoes with Maple Syrup image

I created these candied sweet potatoes with maple syrup to entice my young children to eat sweet potatoes. They didn't like them plain and none of us liked recipes using marshmallows, pineapple, etc. This slightly-sweet version fit the bill. The kids are grown-up now, but still request this be served every Thanksgiving.

SWEET POTATO PUREE WITH BROWN BUTTER



Sweet Potato Puree with Brown Butter image

The biggest mistake people make with purees in simply not cooking the main ingredient long enough in the first place. Sweet potatoes can be boiled on the stovetop in water and such but I want to make this simple. Bake, scoop and mix. That's my favorite way. I am always surprised at what a sleeper this can be. I only add a little milk here to thin it out: I find cream and milk can dilute the sweet potato flavor. It also makes a great soup whisked into hot milk and blended...

Provided by Alex Guarnaschelli

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 1/2 to 5 pounds medium sweet potatoes
2 sticks (8 ounces) unsalted butter
4 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons blackstrap molasses, plus some additional, if needed
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 large knob fresh ginger, peeled and finely grated
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
Kosher salt, to taste
Freshly ground white pepper, to taste
3/4 cup whole milk, heated
The zest and juice from 1 orange
Worcestershire sauce (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Bake the sweet potatoes: Place the sweet potatoes in a single layer on 2 baking sheets. Put the trays in the center of the oven and bake until completely yielding when pierced with the tip of a knife, 1 hour to 1 1/2 hours.
  • Make the brown butter: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter completely over medium heat. Wait until it starts to simmer and turn golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the brown sugar, molasses, dry ginger, fresh ginger, cinnamon and cloves. Set aside.
  • Make the puree: When the potatoes are cooked, place them on a flat surface and cut them in half. Use a large spoon to scoop out the flesh. Discard the skins and run the potatoes through the food mill. Transfer to a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Stir in the milk and all of the reserved brown butter mixture. Taste for seasoning.
  • Finish and serve: Add a few "grates" of orange zest and then cut the orange and half and squeeze in the juice. Taste for seasoning. If the puree lacks sweetness, add a little molasses. If it lacks salt, add more salt or a splash Worcestershire Sauce.

Silky Sweet Potato Puree can be made two days in advance.

Provided by USA WEEKEND columnist Pam Anderson

Categories     Side Dish     Vegetables     Sweet Potatoes

Yield 8

3 pounds whole sweet potatoes, pricked with a fork
½ teaspoon salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
½ cup buttermilk
½ cup whole milk
6 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Adjust oven rack to upper-middle position; heat to 425 degrees. Place potatoes on a foil-lined pan; bake 45 to 60 minutes, until tender. Peel when cool enough to handle.
  • Puree with salt and pepper in a food processor. With motor running, gradually add milks through feeder tube, then butter. Process until silken. (Can make up to 2 days ahead; store in an airtight container.) Reheat and serve.

Tips:

  • To ensure the smoothest puree, use a food mill or ricer to press the sweet potatoes through. This method will remove any lumps or fibers, resulting in a velvety texture.
  • If you don't have a food mill or ricer, you can also mash the sweet potatoes with a potato masher or fork. Just be sure to mash them until they are completely smooth.
  • For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of regular butter. To brown butter, simply melt it in a saucepan over medium heat until it turns a light brown color and has a nutty aroma.
  • If you don't have maple syrup, you can substitute honey or agave nectar. However, maple syrup will give the puree a classic sweet potato flavor.
  • To add a touch of spice, add a pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger to the puree.
  • Serve the puree immediately, or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Sweet potato puree is a versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. Whether you serve it as a side dish, a topping for pancakes or waffles, or as a filling for pies and tarts, this delicious and nutritious puree is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new way to enjoy sweet potatoes, give this recipe a try!
