Browned Butter Smashed Potatoes with Butternut Squash

 
   
   
   
Ingredients -  
   

1 pound (3 medium) Yellow-Flesh Potatoes, cut into 3/4-inch chunks
1 small Butternut Squash (about 1 pound), peeled, seeded and cut into 1-inch chunks
Salt
3 tablespoons Butter, divided
8-10 fresh (2 to 3-inch) sage Leaves, stacked and cut across into ¼-inch strips
½ cup 1% Milk (approximate)
Fresh Ground Black Pepper, to taste

 
   
Preparation:  
   

In 3-quart saucepan, cover potatoes and squash with water; add 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to boil over high heat; reduce heat, cover and cook until tender, 12 to15 minutes. Meanwhile, add 2 tablespoons of the butter and the sage to small skillet or saucepan over medium heat. Tilting pan and watching closely, cook about 3 minutes, until butter foams and begins to brown; keep warm. Thoroughly drain potatoes and squash, return to pan and shake 1 to 2 minutes over low heat. Roughly mash with hand masher leaving mixture chunky. Over low heat, gently mix in remaining tablespoon butter and enough milk for consistency desired. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon into serving bowl and drizzle with brown butter and sage.
