Prepare sweet potatoes
Rinse and scrub 2 pounds of sweet potatoes. Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into 1-inch cubes.
Boil sweet potatoes
Place the cubed sweet potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
Prepare garlic and thyme
While the sweet potatoes are cooking, mince 3 cloves of garlic and finely chop 2 tablespoons of fresh thyme leaves.
Drain and mash sweet potatoes
Once the sweet potatoes are tender, drain them in a colander and return them to the pot. Use a potato masher or hand mixer to mash the sweet potatoes until smooth.
Add butter, milk, and seasonings
Add 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter, 1/4 cup of whole milk, minced garlic, chopped thyme, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper to the mashed sweet potatoes. Stir until the butter is melted and all ingredients are well combined.
Serve
Taste the sweet potato mash and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve hot as a side dish with your favorite main course.
