Mashed Sweet Potatoes With Dried Apples Recipe
2 1/2 lbs. sweet potatoes, scrubbed
2/3 C. chopped, dried apples
1/2 C. apple cider
4 T. softened, unsalted butter
1 T. fresh lemon juice
coarse salt
Preheat oven to 450� F. Prick the potato skins in several places. Plop the whole
potatoes on a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil, or baking sheet. Bake until
tender. Cooking times will vary according to the size of the potatoes. Most take
20 to 30 minutes. A good way to test for doneness is to probe the potatoes with
a skewer.
Meanwhile, put the apples and cider in a small saucepan. Simmer over low heat
until most of the liquid has been absorbed, so the pan is almost dry, 10 to 15
minutes. Remove from the heat.
Peel the sweet potatoes, holding them in a towel to protect your hands from the
heat. Drop them into a pot or large bowl. Smash the flesh with a heavy wire
whisk, then whisk until smooth. Whisk in the butter. Stir in the apples and
lemon juice. Season salt. Serve warm.
