Ingredients
Makes 4 Servings
This Is Vegan.
- 3 pounds (about 6 medium-sized) sweet potatoes
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 to 2 tablespoons brown sugar (light or dark)
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon or lime juice
Method
- Set a large pot of water on the stove to boil
- Peel the sweet potatoes, and cut them into chunks
- Place a large colander in the sink
- When the water comes to a boil, add the sweet potatoes and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or until they are quite soft and a fork can be easily inserted into them
- Drain them well in the colander, and transfer them to a large bowl
- Add the salt, brown sugar, and lemon or lime juice, and mash until smooth
- A hand-held electric mixer at medium speed or a regular old potato masher works equally well for this
- Serve right away, or refrigerate and reheat
