You'll need to peel and section a lemon for this dish. Take care to use only the flesh by removing the skinlike, white membrane from each section. Ingredients:
8 cups (1-inch) cubed peeled sweet potato (about 3 pounds) |
4 cups water |
1/4 cup lemon sections (about 1 large lemon) |
1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar |
3 tablespoons maple syrup |
2 tablespoons butter or stick margarine |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper |
dash of salt |
Directions:
1. Combine first 3 ingredients in a large saucepan; bring to boil. Cook 20 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Remove sweet potatoes from pan with a slotted spoon, reserving cooking liquid. Bring cooking liquid to a boil; cook until reduced to 1/3 cup (about 12 minutes). Stir in sugar and remaining ingredients. Stir in sweet potatoes; cook 2 minutes or until thoroughly heated. |
