Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 lbs sweet potato peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 tick unsalted butter 1/2 cup
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar packed, plus more for garnish
  • 1/3 cup half and half
  • 1 tsp kosher salt plus more to taste
  • salt flaked maldon, to taste

Instructions

  1. Add potatoes to a large pot. Fill with enough cold water to cover potatoes. Place potatoes on the stove and bring to a boil and then reduce to a slow bowl (medium heat) until potatoes are fork-tender, about 10 minutes.
  2. While potatoes cook, add butter to a small skillet. Turn the heat on medium-high, and once the butter begins to brown on the edges, swirl the pan. Keep swirling the pan until the butter becomes a deep brown and smells nutty, about 2-3 minutes. Pour into a small bowl, and make sure to get all the little brown bits (There's a lot of flavor in them!).
  3. Drain potatoes, and if needed, pat potatoes dry. Working in batches, run potatoes through ricer and back into pot. If you don't have a ricer, just use a potato masher.
  4. Once potatoes are smooth, use a potato masher to blend in brown butter, brown sugar, half and half, and salt. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Garish with a little bit of brown sugar and flaked Maldon salt.
