Purée de patates douces

Ingrédients

• 3 lb sweet potatoes
• 4 ounces sour cream (approximately 1/2 cup)
• 1 clove garlic (minced)
• 3 Tbsp Butter
• 1/4 tsp pumpkin spice (optional)
• 1/2 tsp Salt and pepper to taste

Préparation

1. 1

   Trim the ends of the sweet potatoes, peel, and dice into 2-inch cubes. Place them in a medium pan, add salt and enough water to cover the potatoes, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and leave to simmer for about 15 minutes. We want them soft but not mushy.

2. 2

   Drain all the water completely with a colander, return to the pot and mash the potatoes until they become smooth. A potato masher or ricer works best.

3. 3

   Add the butter, sour cream, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to taste. You can also add some milk to thin it out if necessary.

4. 4

   Serve hot.
