2 garlic cloves, minced cone #1

Place sweet potatoes into 3 Qt and basket, bring to a high heat click turn to low and simmer 12-15 minutes.
When the sweet potatoes are tender, remove from heat,  In a skillet heat olive oil over medium heat and add shallots, ginger and garlic, stirring until fragrant and golden about 2-3 minutes.
At this point, you could add the sweet potatoes back into the pot and mash ( using a potato masher) whip until silky smooth.
I usually add about ½ cup liquid for a looser, almost saucy consistency. Season with yeast salt & , pepper.
