Sweet Potato Mash with Sage Butter

This is a healthy alternative to regular mashed potatoes.

The brown butter adds an unbelievable flavour to this dish.


INGREDIENTS
2 Sweet Potatoes
3 Tbsp Butter
5-6 Sage Leaves
1/2 Cup of Milk
Salt & Pepper
Pinch of Nutmeg


METHOD
Preheat the oven to 180C; line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Wash the sweet potatoes, cut in half lengthwise and place them on the baking sheet cut side down, bake until the sweet potatoes are tender.

Remove the skins, set them aside.

Meanwhile, melt the butter in a pot over medium high heat, add the sage leaves and cook for about 30-40 seconds or until the butter turns golden brown but not burnt, discard the sage leaves.


Remove the pot from the heat, add the sweet potatoes and mash until smooth, add the milk, season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.

Below the mash is served with my BBQ Ribs.
