2 lb sweet potatoes, peeled and halved (or quartered for very large pieces)
6 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
¼ cup half and half
3 oz mascarpone cheese
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon tarragon, chopped (or other herb or your choice)
Instructions
Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add potatoes and cook until they are soft. Drain water and return potatoes back to pot. Mash until almost smooth.
In a small pan, combine garlic and half and half. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Reduce heat, cover, and cook for 10 minutes. Use a fork to mash into a paste.
Combine mashed sweet potatoes, garlic mash, and mascarpone. Mix well and season with salt and pepper to taste. Top with tarragon and serve immediately.
