Ingredients

  • 1 head garlic
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil melted
  • 2 pounds sweet potato peeled and roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup canned coconut cream not coconut milk
  • 2-3 teaspoons curry powder to taste*
  • 1/2-1 teaspoon sea salt to taste
  • 1/4 cup cilantro diced

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.  Slice 1/4 inch of the top of the head of garlic, peeling off the excess papery skin, and trying to keep the head intact.
  2. Place the garlic onto a piece of tinfoil and drizzle with the oil, rubbing into into the top and sides of the garlic. Close the tinfoil to make a packet around the garlic (remember to put the shiny-side in!) and roast until the center of the garlic is very soft, about 40 minutes.
  3. While the garlic roasted, place the potatoes into a large pot and cover with 1 inch of water, adding a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil on medium/high heat and cook until fork tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool for 5 minutes.
  4. Add the remaining ingredients, up to the cilantro.  Squeeze the cloves of garlic out of the head and finely dice them. Add in 4 of the diced cloves and then mash everything with a potato masher. Taste and adjust salt, curry powder and garlic - adding more diced cloves if you want more garlic flavor.
  5. Stir in the cilantro and DEVOUR!

Notes

  • *I like this with 3 tsp of curry powder, but Mr. FFF thought it was too much. Start with 2 and adjust to what you like.
