Whipped Sweet Potatoes and Rutabagas


serves 6
  • 2lbs sweet potatoes (about 3 medium)
  • 1lb rutabagas (about 1 medium/large)
  • 6 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 3 Tbs butter
  • 1/2 cup vegetable or chicken broth
  • 2 tsp fresh thyme leaves
  • salt and pepper to taste





Chop vegetables into 1 inch chunks.  Combine potatoes, rutabaga, and garlic in a large pot.

Add water to cover.  Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium and simmer until vegetables are tender (about 10-12 minutes).

Strain and return to the pot (or a large bowl).  Add butter, broth, thyme, salt and pepper. 

For a little texture: whip with a hand held mixer for several minutes or until it has reached your desired consistancy.

For puree:  transfer in batches to a food processor and puree.
