- Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into several large pieces, so they cook faster and more evenly. 2. Put the pieces in a pot and cover with cold water. 3. Add the salt and cook the sweet potatoes until tender — check with a knife; if it slides easily into the flesh, they're done. This takes about 20 minutes. Taste for salt and add more if needed. 4. Drain the water and mash the sweet potatoes lightly with the butter. 5. Warm the cream and pour half of it, hot, into the mash. Whip with a mixer. 6. Add the rest of the cream and whip again. All done. Enjoy!
