White Wine Mashed Sweet Potatoes

Mashed Sweet Potatoes with Sauvignon Blanc Recipe on http://www.theculinarylife.com

When I made my t-bone steaks the other night, I was looking for a quick and easy side that would compliment the herbs I used on the meat. Feeling starchy and harboring a wicket sweets craving, I decided to mash a few garnet yams (which aren’t yams at all, but sweet potatoes).

I do love me some mashed sweet potatoes.

Yams and sweet potatoes generally have a nice, mellow flavor, but I wanted mine to pop a little bit more so that the flavor didn’t get lost when paired with the salty steaks. Anything with a little acid will usually take care of that. Sauvignon Blanc and a touch of smoked sea salt make these taters a real treat that even your kids will undoubtedly love.

White Wine Mashed Sweet Potatoes

Mashed sweet potatoes are a sweeter, healthier side dish than the standard potatoes. Super quick and easy, using yams or sweet potatoes. Your choice!

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds garnet yams peeled and chopped to about 1″ cubes
  • 3 teaspoons heavy cream
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon smoked sea salt
  • 1/4 cup Sauvignon Blanc

Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of water to boil, add yams and boil until forkable, roughly 15 minutes. Drain yams and return to pot.
  • Mix in cream, butter, and smoked sea salt, mashing with a potato masher until slightly lumpy. Add Sauvignon Blanc and mash until completely creamy, adding more wine if you prefer your dish a little tangier.
  • Heat over a low flame for three or four minutes to mellow the wine a touch, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot!
