Spicy Mashed Sweet Potato Recipe
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potatoes peeled and cubed
- 4 tablespoons butter unsalted
- 1 large Anaheim chile pepper seeded and finely minced
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Bring a pot of salted water large enough to easily hold the cubed sweet potatoes to a boil. Add the potatoes and boil for about 10 to 15 minutes until tender.
- Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot you cooked them in. Place the potatoes back on the heat (medium) for a couple of minutes to remove some of the excess starch and moisture. Be sure to stir the potatoes while this is happening so they don't burn.
- Using your favorite mashing technique, mash the potatoes to desired consistency.
- Add the butter and minced chile, taste and adjust seasonings with salt and pepper.
