three large sweet potatoes

Unsalted butter, 1 1/2 tablespoons

2 1/2 tbsp. finely sliced, split crystallized ginger

either 1/3 cup heavy cream OR half and half

mild goat cheese, two ounces, at room temperature

14 cup finely minced fresh chives

To taste, add black pepper and salt.

STEP 1

Oven: Preheat to 400 °F.

Sweet potatoes should be scrubbed and stabbed with a paring knife numerous times. Sweet potatoes should be baked for about an hour, or until very soft, in a baking dish coated with foil. Cool and set aside.

STEP 3

Sweet potatoes should be peeled and put into a food processor bowl with a metal blade attached. Process until smooth after adding the butter and 1 1/2 teaspoons of crystallized ginger. Add goat cheese and heavy cream. Blend until well-combined. Scrape the bowl, quickly process, taste, and add salt and pepper as desired.

Add the remaining tablespoon of crystallized ginger and the chives to the potato puree before placing it in a serving dish. With chicken burgers or a roast chicken, serve 1/2 cup of puree.
