Die besten herzhaften Süßkartoffeln aus dem Stampf

Zutaten

• 3 pounds sweet potatoes
• 3/4 cup canned coconut milk
• 1 1/2 tablespoons garlic powder (Garlic paste can bring a more potent garlic flavor to the dish so reduce its amount.)
• 1 tablespoon Knorr chicken flavor bouillon powder (or vegetable bouillon for a vegan version)
• 1 pinch of freshly ground nutmeg (Cinnamon or allspice will also work.)
• 3/4 cup fully cooked smoked bacon
• Salt and black ground pepper to taste (The bouillon already contains a lot of sodium. So you may need to add just a dash of salt)
• 1/2 cup fresh cilantro (chopped (Or parsley or green onions). If not using bacon, 1-2 tablespoons of pepitas make a great topping.)

Zubereitung

1. 1

   Boil sweet potatoes in a large pot of cold salted water until very tender (about 15 minutes). Drain. Let stand in a colander for 2-5 minutes.

2. 2

   Purée sweet potatoes with a potato ricer or masher; then, stir in the coconut milk until the mixture is homogeneous and creamy.

3. 3

   Add the garlic and bouillon powder, nutmeg, sauteed bacon, salt and pepper; stir well. Before serving, stir in the chopped cilantro. Alternatively, you may top it with pepitas (but in this case omit the bacon).
