Garlic Cilantro Mashed Sweet Potatoes Thanksgiving Recipes

Steps:

• Put oven rack in lower third of oven and preheat oven to 425°F.
• Toss sweet potatoes with 2 tablespoons oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a shallow baking pan. Arrange potatoes in 1 layer and roast, stirring halfway through roasting, until tender, about 25 minutes total. Stir together cayenne, zest, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Whisk together lime juice and remaining tablespoon oil in a medium bowl, then add potatoes. Sprinkle with cayenne mixture and cilantro, stirring gently to combine.

Steps:

• Saute garlic in 1 tablespoon of butter for 2 minutes, in a deep enough pot to hold the potatoes.
• Add potatoes to garlic and add remaining butter, sour cream and salt.
• Mash throughly in the pot.
• Fold in cilantro.
• Transfer to a serving bowl and enjoy!

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water by 2 inches. Add 2 tablespoons of kosher salt, bring to a boil and cook until fork tender, about 25 minutes.
• While the potatoes are cooking, heat the milk in a small saucepan over high heat, bring to a boil, cover and remove from the heat. Keep warm until the potatoes finish cooking.
• Drain the potatoes in a colander and return them to the saucepan over low heat. Stir the potatoes for about a minute in the saucepan to evaporate any additional water.
• Put the potatoes into a ricer or food mill set over a large bowl. Stir in the butter then 1 1/2 cups to all of the warm milk until creamy. Stir in creme fraiche, mascarpone or pesto, if desired. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Add potatoes to a large pot of salted water. Place over medium/high heat and bring to a boil. Cook until fork tender, about 15-20 minutes.
• Drain, peel, and mash potatoes until they reach a smooth consistency.
• Add remaining ingredients to mash and mix to incorporate.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Cut off pointed end of garlic; place garlic on a piece of aluminum foil, and drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil. Fold foil to seal. Brush corn with 1 tablespoon oil and place on a baking sheet.
• Bake garlic at 400 degrees for 1 hour. After 15 minutes, place corn in oven, and bake, with garlic, 45 more minutes or until corn is golden brown. Squeeze pulp from garlic cloves, and set aside. Let corn cool completely.
• Hold 1 corncob upright on a cutting board and carefully cut downward, cutting kernels from cob. Repeat with remaining 2 corncobs. Discard cobs. Set corn aside.
• Cook potatoes in boiling water to cover in a large saucepan until fork-tender (about 15 to 20 minutes). Drain and return to pan.
• Whisk together reserved roasted garlic pulp, 3/4 cup sour cream, 1/2 cup butter and next 5 ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium heat until butter melts and mixture is thoroughly heated. Do not boil.
• Mash potatoes slightly; add warm garlic mixture to pan and continue to mash just until blended (mixture should be coarsely mashed). Stir in chopped cilantro and reserved corn.
