Whip up a buttery batch of mashed purple sweet potato in less than 10 minutes with our recipe-ready ʻuala.
Bag of recipe-ready Okinawan sweet potatoes next to a bowl of mashed ʻuala.

Ingredients

  • 12 oz. Recipe-ready ʻUala, defrosted
  • 2 cloves garlic, smashed
  • ¾ cup coconut milk
  • TT kosher salt and black pepper
  • 2 Tbsp butter

Directions

  1. In a small pot, combine the ʻuala, garlic and coconut milk. Season with salt and pepper and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook 5 minutes, until the starch from the potatoes starts to thicken the coconut milk.
  2. Place everything in a food processor, add the butter and puree until smooth.

    *If you do not own a food processor you can add the butter and mash the mixture with a potato masher or ricer.
  3. Check seasoning and add more salt and pepper if necessary. Serve immediately.
