Mashed purple sweet potatoes are a visually stunning side dish & so easy to make. Perfect for any occasion, from Thanksgiving to a simple family dinner.
Add the peeled and chopped purple sweet potatoes to a large pot.
Add water to the pot until the sweet potatoes are just covered.
Place the pot over high heat and bring to a boil. Place the lid on and reduce the heat to a high simmer.
Simmer the potatoes for 15 minutes or until a fork easily pierces the potatoes.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the warm pot.

Season with salt and pepper to taste.
