Sweet potatoes mixed with white potatoes result in a nice creamy texture. This version simply uses water to cook and finally mashed with a hand held blender for a creamy consistency. If you prefer a thicker consistency use a hand masher. Tip – you can prepare the potatoes ahead of time and cover with water, which will keep well until you need to cook them.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups medium sweet potatoes – 2 medium sweet potatoes approximately – peeled, rinsed, diced
  • 2 cups potatoes of choice – 2 medium potatoes approximately – peeled, rinsed, diced
  • 2 cups water
