Found this on Serious Eats blog. I made them to go with the Salmon with Jalapeno Lime sauce found here and they were a perfect match. But I can see them going well with lots of things. You can sub sour cream for the creme fraiche, but when it's so simple to make you own I don't see why you would. Read more =) See less
Ingredients
- 1 sweet potato, peeled and diced into 1-inch cubes shopping list
- 1 russet potato, peeled and diced into 1-inch cubes shopping list
- 3 T creme friache shopping list
- 2 T butter shopping list
- half-and-half, as needed shopping list
How to make it
- Place diced potatoes into a pan. Add cold water to cover by an inch or so. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat slightly and boil until they are tender.
- Drain well in a colander.
- Quickly add them back to the hot pan to evaporate any excess water. Add the butter and creme fraiche, stirring to incorporate. Mash to desired consistancy, adding half-and-half as necessary. (I use a tablespoon or two.)
- Add some freshly ground pepper and kosher- or sea-salt to taste and serve immediately.
