(Camotes con Crema de Chipotle)
Category: Potatoes and Sweet Potatoes
Orange-skinned sweet potatoes with bright orange flesh, are best for this unusual recipe that I developed. The smoky tasting and feisty chipotle chile flavors the creamy sauce that coats the tender pieces of potato. Maggi is a seasoning extract that's popular in Mexico and can be found in Mexican markets in the United States. It deepens and enhances the taste of the dish.
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 medium white onion, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon Maggi seasoning extract of Worcestershire sauce
4 orange-skinned sweet potatoes (often labeled yams); (about 1 pound), peeled and cut into 3/4-inch pieces
1/2 cup canned fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 to 2 teaspoons chipotle, salsa, or the sauce from canned chipotle chiles en adobo
1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, or to taste
1. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-low heat and cook the onion, stirring, until limp and starting to brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the Maggi and stir to blend. Add the yams and broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until the yams are almost tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
2. Add the cream, chipotle sauce, salt, and pepper. Cook uncovered, stirring, until the sauce reduces and thickens and the yams are very tender. Serve hot.
