Mashed Sweet Potatoes with Coconut Milk

maryanne r - January 19, 2007 12:00:23 PM PST

Was in Hawaii last year and had awesome food; however nothing like this ...... a great dish and healthy too....so why not substitute regular skim milk if you want it more often Maryanne in MA

The ginger made the dish

The hint of ginger gave this dish a nice tickle to the palate. I didn\'t notice the difference the coconut milk made. I liked this dish overall but would probably use a little more ginger next time as well as some seasoning to give it a little more flavor.

We tried this recipe out and accompanied it by Korean BBQ..awesome! The BBQ sauce complemented the taste of sweet potato so well, without making it too sweet or too pasty. Only modifications that I made were to add a pat of butter

Short cut

Instead of waiting for the sweet potatoes to bake, try pealing them first, then cutting them in 1/2 inch thick slices and steaming them. It\'s quick and easy!

I make a similar version - instead of mashing the potatoes, I just bake them and mush the ingredients. I also add a bit of toasted coconut for extra flavor. It\'s almost like dessert!

Love this dish because it was quick to make but my family was not pleased with it. Had to add extra ingredients to make this dish taste better.

coconuts are healthy

Sounds easy and delicious. Nice that it can be made ahead. Anyone worried about using coconut milk should make a search "health befefits of coconuts" and find the new research. Careful though, calories galore.
