Garlic & Herb Mashed Sweet Potatoes

Ingredients

  • 3 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil or olive oil
  • 1/4 cup coconut milk (unsweetened)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced (optional for AIP reintroduction or leave out for strict AIP)
  • 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped (plus extra for garnish)
  • Sea salt to taste

Directions

  • Cook the sweet potatoes: Place the cubed sweet potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Add a pinch of sea salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 12-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
  • Drain and mash: Drain the sweet potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the coconut oil, coconut milk, and minced garlic (if using). Mash with a potato masher or blend with an immersion blender for an ultra-smooth texture.
  • Season with herbs: Stir in the rosemary, parsley, and sea salt to taste. Adjust seasoning as needed.
  • Serve: Transfer the mashed sweet potatoes to a serving bowl, garnish with a sprinkle of parsley, and serve warm.
