Ingredients:

Serving

3 lbs sweet potatoes
6 tbsp unsalted butter (room temperature )
6 tbsp dark brown sugar (packed)

1/2 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp finely chopped fresh ginger

Line a baking sheet with foil.
Grease a 1- to 1-1/2-quart ovenproof serving dish or spray with nonstick spray.
Wash and dry the sweet potatoes. Stick them with a knife several times each to allow steam to escape. Put them baking sheet and bake until soft. (1-1/2 to 2 hours, depending on size).
Peel potatoes as soon as they are cool enough to handle.
Beat with an electric mixer.
Beat in 4 tablespoons of the butter. Add 4 tablespoons of the brown sugar and the salt, coriander, cinnamon, ginger, and lemon peel. Mix well.
Beat in the orange juice.
Place the potatoes in the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle top lightly with remaining 2 tablespoons of brown sugar and dot with remaining 2 tablespoons butter.
Bake for 30 minutes until heated through.
To make ahead- After you put it together, and before baking, cover it tightly with foil and freeze. When ready to use, defrost the casserole and bake in a 350°F oven for 30 minutes.
