Sweet Potatoes
Posted by Aubie Spr96 on 10/20/15 at 4:39 pm00
I got some small ones that I grew in the garden this year. I was planning on using them as a side item with some jerked chicken I was doing. Any ideas? Simple peel and boil? Mashed? Roasted?
I honestly don't think I've had them any other way than sweet potato casserole on the holidays.

Baked with butter is all you need

I roasted some small ones recently. I peeled them and boiled them a bit in water with a little crab boil. Then, sliced, coated in olive oil and roasted at 450. You can season with S&P or you can go with some brown sugar and cinnamon toward the end of cooking to avoid burning.
You can also slice and layer in a casserole dish. S&P them in between the layers, barely cover with cream. Bake covered at 350 for about an hour or until they become soft. Take the top off, sprinkle on parm cheese and bake another 10 minutes. The sweet potatoes juice some and that mixes with the cream making a thick sauce which is delicious.
ETA: looks like your thread is anchored due to the 2 word title.

This is from the recipe book.
Scalloped Sweet Potatoes with Apples and Raisins
This is so awesome, even people who say they don't like sweet potato will love it:
1 Tbs unsalted butter
3 tart apples, cut into small pieces
2 Tbs brown sugar
2 lbs sweet potatoes, also cut into small bite size pieces
1/2 cup golden raisins
1 1/2 Tbs flour
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1 cup chicken broth, fat free
1/4 cup chopped pecans
1. Preheat oven to 350 and spray a 9 by 13 cooking dish with Pam (or similar).
2. Melt the butter in a medium nonstick skillet over med. heat. Add the apples and stir, cooking for about a minute or two until the apples start to release a bit of juice.
3. Add the brown sugar, then cook for two minutes until the apples start to get soft. Place the apples, sweet potatoes and raisins in the baking dish.
4. Now, place the flour and cinnamon in a small bowl. Whisk in 1/4 cup of the broth until it all dissolves, then add in the rest of the broth and pour the whole thing over the fruit and into the dish.
5. Cover loosely with foil and bake for one hour, then remove foil and sprinkle in the pecans and bake a few more minutes until the pecans are toasted.
