Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into small chunks or thin slices
Salt
1 tablespoon oil, extra-virgin olive oil or vegetable oil
2 slices smoky bacon, finely chopped
1 orange, zested and juiced
Chicken stock, as needed

  • Put the potatoes in a medium pot, cover with water, salt the water and bring to boil over medium heat. Cook until tender, then drain and return the potatoes to the pot. Heat a little oil over medium heat, in a medium saute pan and add the bacon and cook until it begins to crisp. Stir in the orange zest and juice and the potatoes.

These mashed sweet potatoes were a bit too runny for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had mashed them less.

These mashed sweet potatoes were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had used less brown sugar.

I'm not a huge fan of sweet potatoes, but these mashed sweet potatoes were surprisingly good. The orange zest really balanced out the sweetness of the potatoes, and the spices gave them a nice kick. I'll definitely be making these again.
