- Choose the right potatoes: Look for firm, smooth sweet potatoes with no blemishes or sprouts. Smaller potatoes are generally sweeter and more tender than larger ones.
- Wash the potatoes thoroughly: Scrub the potatoes well under running water to remove any dirt or debris.
- Prick the potatoes: Use a fork to prick the potatoes all over. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from bursting.
- Cook the potatoes until tender: The potatoes are done when they are easily pierced with a fork. Depending on the size of the potatoes, this can take anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour.
- Let the potatoes cool slightly: Allow the potatoes to cool for a few minutes before handling them. This will make them easier to peel and mash.
- Mash the potatoes: Use a potato masher or a fork to mash the potatoes until they are smooth and creamy. You can also use a food processor or blender to achieve a smoother consistency.
- Season the potatoes to taste: Add salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings to the mashed potatoes. You can also add butter, milk, or cream to make them richer and more flavorful.
- Serve the potatoes immediately: Mashed potatoes are best served hot or warm. You can garnish them with chopped parsley, chives, or grated cheese.
