Recipe: Mashed Indian-style Sweet Potatoes

Sweet potatoes are healthier for you than white potatoes so why not use them in your potato salads or mashed potato sides? Here is a recipe you can try to change things up.

You will need:
  • 2 medium sized sweet potatoes, chopped into small pieces
  • 2 TBS fresh orange juice
  • ½ tsp garam masala
  • 1 TBS extra virgin olive oil
  • salt and white pepper to taste

How to prepare:

Bring lightly salted water to a boil in a steamer with a tight fitting lid and steam the diced sweet potato pieces in the steamer for about 10 minutes or until they are tender. When tender, mash the pieces with a potato masher (or fork if you don't have one) and then add the rest of the ingredients and mash together until well mixed.

Its a nice change and healthy one too!
