This silky sweet potato puree is an elegant alternative to traditional mashed potatoes. Using red-skinned garnet yams provides a vibrant orange colour and naturally sweet flavour that balances beautifully with the addition of fresh lime juice. By allowing the potatoes to steam-dry after boiling, you ensure a rich, concentrated texture that feels truly indulgent without being heavy.
As a versatile vegetarian side dish, this puree pairs perfectly with roasted meats or hearty autumn vegetable bakes. The addition of double cream and butter creates a luxurious mouthfeel, while the chopped chives provide a fresh, savoury finish. It is a simple yet sophisticated accompaniment that can be prepared in advance, making it ideal for hosting dinner parties or Sunday lunch.

Ingredients for Garnet Yam Puree
2.3kg garnet yams or other yams (red-skinned sweet potatoes), peeled, cut into 1-inch pieces
Coarse kosher salt
120ml double cream
60ml (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
Fresh chives, chopped
Potato ricer or potato masher
How to make Garnet Yam Puree
Place yams in large pot. Pour enough cold water over to cover by 2 inches. Sprinkle with coarse salt and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium; boil gently until yams are very tender, about 10 to 12 minutes. Drain well; reserve pot. Let yams stand in strainer at least 10 minutes and up to 30 minutes.
Working in batches, press yams through potato ricer back into same pot or mash yams with potato masher. Combine cream and butter in glass measuring cup. Microwave on high just until warm, about 45 seconds. Add cream mixture to yams and mix with potato masher or whisk until puree is almost smooth. Stir in lime juice. Season to taste with coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature. Rewarm over medium-low heat until heated through, stirring often. Garnish with chives.
