Description

Ingredients

• 2 pounds garnet sweet potatoes, cut into 1” chunk
• 2 - 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons maple syrup
• ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
• 1 cup cold running tap water
• Fine sea salt to taste

Directions

• Peel and Cut: Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into 1” chunks.
• Pressure Cook the Sweet Potatoes: Pour 1 cup of cold running tap water and place a steamer basket into the pressure cooker. Place sweet potato chunks into the basket. Close lid and cook at High Pressure for 8 minutes. Turn off the heat and carefully do a quick release. Open the lid.
• Mash the Sweet Potatoes: Place the cooked sweet potatoes in a large bowl. Use a potato masher to partially mash the potatoes. Add ¼ tsp nutmeg, 2 – 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter, and 2 tablespoons of maple syrup to the sweet potatoes. Mash and mix the sweet potatoes into desired consistency. Taste and season with a pinch of fine sea salt.
• Serve: Serve the sweet potatoes as side dish. We love it with seared flank steaks, pork loins, and ducks. Enjoy~ 🙂
