Spicy Sweet Potato Mash Recipe

I love sweet potato and am always seeking new recipes that feature them. Sweet potato has a low GI so is a good alternative to white potatoes and you can often substitute them. This calls for both white and sweet potatoes but you could leave out the white potatoes if you prefer. I like to serve this with caramelized onions as a side dish with grilled porterhouse steak. It is simple to make and tastes great.

INGREDIENTS:

500g potatoes
500g sweet potato
1 clove garlic (can use bottled)
40g butter - melted
1 tablespoon powdered curry spice
fresh parsley and extra butter to serve

METHOD:

Peel and coarsly chop all potatoes. Place in large saucepan of boiling water. Add the garlic and some salt and boil, uncovered until potatoes are tender. Drain well and transfer to a large bowl.
Mash until smooth. Stir in butter and seasoning and mix well.
Serve mash, drizzled with the extra melted butter and garnish with parsley.
