Ginger Lime Sweet Potatoes
One of my favourite Good Cook Tricks is adding stuff to mashed potatoes. This is a great way to make a weekday dinner a bit more special, add polish to a company dinner and perfect your holiday feast.
The zing of ginger and lime make these sweet potatoes a great mate with barbecued or roasted salmon.
Amounts are for four average sized sweet potatoes. Adjust to suit your crowd.
Either microwave the potatoes on high until soft, about 7 minutes, or bake at 350 for about an hour.
Cut the potatoes in half to remove some steam.
Scrape the flesh out of the peel into a bowl.
Add 2 tsp freshly grated ginger
juice of 2 limes
salt and pepper to taste
2 T butter
Mash together well with a fork.
Reheat for a minute if necessary.
