Thyme Brown Butter Mashed Sweet Potatoes

Langkah-langkah

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

2. Place the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet lined with foil. Keep them in the very center of the sheet, and place the garlic cloves in between the potatoes. Spray everything with olive oil cooking spray (or drizzle with olive oil) and wrap in the foil. Place in the oven and roast until tender, about 1 hour to 1 ½ hours.

3. As the potatoes cool, prepare the browned butter.

4. In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. When the butter has entirely melted, add in the thyme and reduce the heat to medium-low. Continue to cook until the butter turns a nutty brown, making sure not to let it burn. Remove from heat and keep warm.

5. Peel the skins of the potatoes and mash the sweet potatoes using a potato masher or potato ricer. As you mash them, add in a bit of browned butter at a time, and mix. You can optionally add in some of the roasted garlic in this stage.

6. Add salt and pepper to taste, keep warm, and serve.
