mashed sweet potato

 

Ingredients:

2 large sweet potatoes, washed and dried

2 Tablespoons butter

Salt and Black pepper to taste

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400ºF.

Place potatoes directly on middle rack of oven. Bake; checking for doneness by either gently squeezing potatoes or pricking them with a fork to see if they’re really soft, about 40 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and cool for 5 minutes more.

Scrape potato flesh from skin into a large bowl. Add butter and mash with a potato masher or spoon. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

**In a hurry? Instead of baking the potatoes, peel and chop potatoes and cook in a pot of boiling water until soft and tender. Add butter and mash with a potato masher or spoon. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
