Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 6 medium sweet potatoes (about 4 pounds) 3/4 cup coconut milk 2 1/2 to 3 teaspoons Thai red-curry paste 1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for dishes 1 teaspoon coarse salt

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prick sweet potatoes all over with a fork. Bake on a baking sheet until soft, about 1 hour. Let cool slightly. Peel potatoes, transfer to a bowl, and mash with a potato masher.

Bring coconut milk and curry paste to a simmer in a saucepan. Cook for 5 minutes. Add potatoes along with 3 tablespoons maple syrup, 2 tablespoons butter, and the salt, and stir.

Preheat broiler. Butter six 1-cup gratin dishes or one 6-cup baking dish. Spoon mixture into dishes, and smooth tops. Drizzle with remaining maple syrup. Dot with remaining butter, cut into small pieces. Broil until tops are sizzling and browned, 3 to 4 minutes.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 5 stars       10/20/2015   This is an absolute favorite! A vegan version can be made by replacing the curry paste with curry powder; simply do so to taste. You can also use Earth Balance instead of butter (though I prefer butter). I imagine coconut oil could be a healthier alternative to Earth Balance (seed oils make the body retain fat) but I haven't tried that yet. Even though I made this to give our vegan family members variety, everyone in the family gobbled it up!

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       11/21/2012   These are some of the best mashed potatoes I ever had. They're savory, with a subtle sweetness and spiciness. I can't get enough of these and am looking forward to introducing them to friends at Thanksgiving. (Fyi, when I made this recipe, I reduced both the amount of butter and maple syrup, and they were still delicious). Note: This is NOT a dessert, so if that's what you're looking for, you probably want a different recipe.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       11/28/2011   This is now a side-dish tradition in my family. Made it in 2011 for the third or fourth Thanksgiving and, as usual, everyone loved its sweet-but-not-too and hot-but-not-too contrasting flavors. Definitely recommend using a ricer for the best consistency.
