Garlic Mashed Sweet Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• 1 Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). 2 Prick unpeeled potatoes in several places and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until very tender, from 1 to 1¼ hours. Set aside until cool enough to handle. Then peel or scoop flesh out of skins and cut into chunks. 3 Pulse potatoes in a food processor along with butter, garlic, salt and pinches of paprika and cayenne until as smooth as you like. Or put potatoes through a food mill or mash; then mix in butter, garlic, salt and seasonings. Stir in basil. Taste and add more butter, salt or basil if needed. If not being served right away, potatoes can be left at room temperature for a couple of hours; or refrigerate them, covered, for up to 2 days. Warm in the microwave or an oven dish.

Steps:

• In a small baking dish, combine the sweet potatoes and garlic. Drizzle with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake, uncovered, at 425° for 25-30 minutes or until tender, stirring every 10 minutes.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the oil, garlic, rosemary and salt; add sweet potatoes and toss to coat. Transfer to a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray. , Bake, uncovered at 350° for 30 minutes. Add broth; bake 10-15 minutes longer or until potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally.

Steps:

• Start by preheating your oven to 400°F.
• Scrub the sweet potatoes clean. Pat dry and prick each one several times with a fork. Place on an ungreased sheet pan. Bake for 30 minutes.
• While the potatoes are baking, slice the top of the garlic head off so that the cloves are exposed. Wrap in aluminum foil.
• After the potatoes have baked 30 minutes, add the foil wrapped garlic to the pan with the potatoes. Bake for an additional 30 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the oven. Split the potatoes lengthwise, and then flip them so the cut side is up. Unwrap the garlic, and let both the garlic and potatoes cool for about 15 minutes.
• Scoop out the sweet potato flesh into the food processor bowl with the chopping blade. (The skins of my potatoes just peeled off in one piece, so I didn't have to dirty up a spoon to scoop the flesh.) Squeeze out the roasted garlic cloves over the potatoes. Add in the remaining ingredients.
• Pulse for 10 seconds. Scrape the bowl and stir the potato mixture around. Repeat the pulse and stir step 2 more times, or until everything is smooth.
• Serve and enjoy immediately!

Steps:

• Add potatoes to a large pot of salted water. Place over medium/high heat and bring to a boil. Cook until fork tender, about 15-20 minutes.
• Drain, peel, and mash potatoes until they reach a smooth consistency.
• Add remaining ingredients to mash and mix to incorporate.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Cut the top off unpeeled garlic head. Drizzle with olive oil, place in baking pan & bake & 250 degrees for 30 - 40 minutes.
• Bake the potatoes at 400 degrees for 1 hour or until tender.
• Cut potatoes in half, scoop into saucepan and mash.
• Squeeze roasted garlic into the mashed potatoes.
• Add butter, mash while adding cream a little at a time. Add salt & pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Poke the sweet potatoes along their sides with a fork. Microwave the sweet potatoes, laid out in a circle in the microwave, until soft, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Slice the potatoes, across their width, into 1/2-inch slices. Separate them so they're not sticking together. Put 1/4 cup of olive oil into a small cup. Brush that oil onto the flat surfaces with a pastry brush. Pour any remaining oil over potatoes.
• Put the oiled sweet potatoes into a gallon-sized zip-top bag. Add Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and salt. Shake the bag thoroughly for 1 minute. Manipulate the pieces with your hand (from the outside) to make sure all pieces get exposed to the cheese and powder.
• Heat remaining 1/2 cup of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully pour the sweet potatoes into the skillet. Cook, moving the pieces around and flipping periodically, for 7 minutes. Remove from heat and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Turn the garlic head on its side and carefully cut off the very top end to expose the cloves. (Discard the top.) Place the head of garlic on a sheet of foil, cut side up, and drizzle with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Wrap tightly and place on a sheet pan. Wrap each sweet potato individually in foil and place on the pan alongside the garlic.
• Bake until the sweet potatoes are tender and the garlic is soft, fragrant and slightly caramelized, about 1 hour. Set aside, still wrapped, to cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, heat the cream and butter in the microwave in 30-second intervals, checking after each, until the butter is melted, about 1 minute. (Alternatively, you can heat the cream and butter in a small saucepan over medium until the butter is melted.)
• Unwrap the sweet potatoes and peel them, discarding the skin and adding the flesh to a large bowl. Squeeze the garlic head, cut side down, into the bowl to release the roasted cloves. Pour in the hot cream and butter. Using a whisk or fork, break up the potatoes and garlic and vigorously stir until smooth and fluffy, at least 30 seconds. Taste for seasoning, adjusting with salt and pepper as needed. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve warm. (To make ahead, transfer to a buttered casserole dish or cake pan, cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours, until ready to eat. Bake in a 350-degree oven or microwave until heated through, about 15 minutes. On Thanksgiving, you should reheat this when the turkey is out of the oven and resting.)
