Mashed Sweet Potatoes..

I must admit...I had never heard of this dish until I happened to dine at a local soul food establishment and they served it...I've been hooked ever since...Special thanks to my good friend, Chef Tamika..who shared this recipe with me-

INGREDIENTS:

10 cups sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped

1/4 to 1/2 cup butter

3 tablespoons honey

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt



DIRECTIONS:

Add the potatoes to a large Dutch oven and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

Reduce the heat and simmer or until the potatoes are tender, about 8 to 10 minutes, drain well.

Return the potatoes to the Dutch oven and add the butter, honey, cinnamon, and salt. Beat at medium-low speed with an electric mixer until smooth. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve hot.


Cook's Note: For more sweetness, add more honey.  You can also use sugar in place of salt.


You can serve these with almost anything...Enjoy!
