Duquesas de boniato

Sweet potato duchesses are a sophisticated side dish that stands out for its vibrant orange color and delicate sweet flavor. Their creamy texture inside and lightly crisp exterior make them the ideal accompaniment to roasted meats or fish. To balance their natural sweetness and highlight the nuances of the roast without adding sodium, we will use Bonsalt .

Technical Sheet

  • Estimated time: 45 minutes

  • Difficulty: ⭐⭐

  • Servings: 4 people

Ingredients

  • 600g sweet potato (sweet potato or yam)

  • 2 egg yolks

  • 30g butter (or coconut oil for a dairy-free version)

  • A pinch of nutmeg

  • Bonsalt

  • Ground white pepper

Professional Step-by-Step Preparation

  1. Cooking the sweet potato: Peel and chop the sweet potatoes. Steam them or boil them in water until very tender (about 20 minutes). You can also roast them whole in the oven for a more intense flavor and a less moist texture.

  2. Making the puree: Drain the sweet potatoes well and pass them through a food mill or mash them with a fork until you get a smooth, lump-free mixture. It is important to do this while they are hot.

  3. Enrichment: Add the butter to the hot puree so it melts. Stir in the egg yolks one by one, mixing vigorously so they blend in well.

  4. Seasoning: Add the nutmeg, white pepper and Bonsalt to taste. The mixture should be thick and glossy.

  5. Shaping: Transfer the mixture to a piping bag fitted with a fluted nozzle. On a baking tray lined with parchment paper, pipe small swirls or mounds.

  6. Baking: Brown in the preheated oven at 200°C for about 8-10 minutes, or until the edges of the duchesses are lightly golden. Serve immediately.
