Description

Sweet potatoes join creme fraîche, caramelized onions, and roasted garlic for these impressive curried mashed potatoes.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
6 medium sweet potatoes
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1 tablespoon crushed fresh ginger root
1 tablespoon creme fraiche
1/8 teaspoon curry powder
1/8 teaspoon ground turmeric

3 Mash and mix sweet potatoes with onion-garlic mixture, ginger, creme fraiche, curry powder, turmeric, and pepper until well combined.
