Ingredients

• 2 pounds Russet potatoes, peeled and diced
• 1.5 pounds Sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced

Directions

Step 1

Place the diced russet potatoes in one pot and the diced sweet potatoes in a separate pot. Cover each pot with cold water and add a pinch of salt to each.

Step 2

Bring both pots to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.

Step 3

While the potatoes are cooking, combine the heavy cream, unsalted butter, minced garlic, and 1 teaspoon of salt in a small saucepan. Heat over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter is melted and the mixture is warm. Do not let it boil.

Step 4

Drain the russet potatoes and return them to their pot. Pour half of the warm cream mixture over them and mash until smooth, using a potato masher or ricer. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 5

Drain the sweet potatoes and return them to their pot. Pour the remaining cream mixture over them and mash until smooth. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 6

To create the marbled effect, spoon alternating dollops of the mashed russet potatoes and sweet potatoes into a serving dish. Use a spatula or spoon to gently swirl the two together, being careful not to overmix, so the colors remain distinct.

Step 7

Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy the beautiful presentation and complementary flavors.
