WHIPPED CHIPOTLE SWEET POTATOES
You can use a little more chili paste than the recipe calls for, but if your guests aren't wild for spicy foods, keep it under control. You can add a little cinnamon, crème fraiche, and maple syrup if you like. this minimalist adaptation is dynamite, though. Once you've tasted it, all other sweet potato dishes will seem wimpy....
