Sweet Potato Mash

I realise I haven't posted any recipes for a while. This is a hearty healthy winter warmer.

Serves 2-3

2 Sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped
1 white potato, peeled and chopped
Big knob of butter
Splash of milk
Salt and pepper
Cubed Pancetta (optional but lovely)

Boil the potatoes (sweet and white) in hot salty water for about 15 minutes, until soft but not falling apart.

Meanwhile fry up some cubed Pancetta in a small frying pan, ideally in some garlic oil.

Strain and return to pan with butter milk and seasoning.

Mash well. Stir in the pancetta. Check the seasoning again and serve while piping hot.

Great with fish or griddled poultry.
