Purê de batata-doce com manteiga noisette

Ingredientes

• 4 medium sweet potatoes (peeled and quartered)
• 1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2-1 cup milk (animal or plant)
• Salt and pepper (to taste)

Modo de preparo

1. 1

   Place the sweet potatoes in a large stock pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, and continue boiling until fork tender—about 10 minutes. Drain sweet potatoes.

2. 2

   Return the empty pot to the stove over medium-low heat. Add in the butter. Cook butter until it is a light caramel color, stirring constantly to prevent burning.

3. 3

   Add the sweet potatoes back into the pot, and use a potato masher to mash until smooth. Remove from heat. Add in the vanilla, ½ cup of the milk, plus salt and pepper to taste. Continue mashing. Add in more milk if necessary to achieve the desired consistency.
