Serve these potatoes with Roast chicken or Turkey, green beans, and cranberry sauce. I found this recipe at Tops market courtesy of North Carolina Sweet Potato Commission. I have not tried this recipe, but I'm posting it for safe keeping. Ingredients:
6 north carolina sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into large cubes |
1/4 cup brown sugar |
2 tablespoons butter |
2 tablespoons orange juice |
2 tablespoons orange zest |
1 cup apricot preserves |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon pepper |
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped |
Directions:
1. Place sweet potatoes in a 2-quart casserole dish, cover, and cook in microwave on high for 10-12 minutes, until potatoes are tender. Remove and set aside to cool slightly.
2. Combine butter, brown sugar, orange juice, orange zest, apricot preserves, salt and pepper in a small microwave bowl and cook on high for 3 minutes, stirring each minute.
3. Add orange mixture to the potatoes and toss lightly. Microwave until heated through. Baste with sauce twice during final heating. Garnish with the walnuts sprinkled on top.
