Savory Mashed Sweet Potatoes image

These savory mashed sweet potatoes are ready in less than 25 minutes, making them a great addition to your weeknight routine, or a last-minute party or potluck side. Naturally sweet on their own, sweet potatoes pair perfectly with savory flavors such as chopped fresh thyme, salt, and pepper. Serve these mashed sweet potatoes as a side to proteins such as chicken, turkey, or pork, and you've got an easy meal ready in a flash. Also, unlike sweet potato casseroles, or buttery mashed potatoes, this side gives you all the comfort without all the calories. You can enjoy this creamy side for less than 205 calories per serving and pack in 4 grams of fiber.

SIMPLE SAVORY MASHED SWEET POTATOES

Simple Savory Mashed Sweet Potatoes image

These simply mashed sweet potatoes taste so good it's hard to stop eating them! It's amazing what just a little butter, sour cream and a few scallions can do without all the frills we usually add. Then again, the beautiful sweet potato doesn't need much help. These make a wonderful addition to a hearty meal and pair well with most meats, especially pork. I pre-bake the potatoes in the oven because I think they have the best flavor, but I included steps for cooking them in the microwave as well. The dish will take from 25 minutes using the microwave to 65 minutes using the oven, not counting the cooling period post cooking.

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

2 1/2 lbs sweet potatoes (about 4)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup chopped green onion, some set aside for topping (about 4)
salt, to taste
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
1/2 cup sour cream

Steps:

Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes; pat dry.
To bake the sweet potatoes, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place pricked potatoes on a foil-lined baking pan to catch any juices that leak, then into the preheated oven and cook for 45 minutes, or until the potatoes are fully cooked and tender, up to 1 hour.
To cook the sweet potatoes more quickly, carefully prick each sweet potato about 6 times, place in microwave oven on a paper towel and cook on High 15 to 17 minutes, or until a knife is easily inserted into center of potatoes.
When cool enough to handle, remove skin and any dark spots from potatoes. In a medium bowl, mash potatoes with butter and season with salt and pepper. Stir in sour cream and scallions until well mixed. Serve immediately sprinkled with reserved green onions on top.

Steam or boil the sweet potatoes until it is easy to slide a thin knife in and out, about 15 minutes.
If boiling, drain the potatoes over a colander. If steaming, remove the potatoes and drain the water from the pot.
Return the potatoes to the pot set over medium-low heat. Mash the potatoes for 20-30 seconds – just until excess liquid has cooked off. (This will remove any residual water in the pot and on the potatoes.) Remove the pot from the heat and mash the potatoes until a chunky consistency is achieved.

Place the cubed sweet potatoes in a large saucepan or Dutch oven and add enough water to cover by about 1″. Add 1 teaspoon of the salt and bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, until the potatoes are tender (in other words, it’s easy to slide a fork in and out), about 9 to 12 minutes.
Drain well, then return the potatoes to the pot. Mash the sweet potatoes to your desired consistency.
Promptly add almost all of the green onion and parsley, reserving a small amount of each for garnish. Add the garlic, and stir to combine. Then stir in most of the sour cream (reserve roughly 1 tablespoon for garnish), all of the butter, and the remaining 1 teaspoon salt. Season to taste with additional salt (I usually add another 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon) and freshly ground black pepper.
Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving bowl and swirl the reserved sour cream onto the top with a spoon. Sprinkle with the reserved green onion and parsley, drizzle the top lightly with olive oil, and finish with a sprinkle of pepper.
