In this recipe, sweet potatoes are cooked in a ginger syrup to make a country-style dessert. Ingredients:
1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks |
1 quart water |
1 (1/2 inch) piece ginger, peeled and sliced |
1 cup palm sugar |
Directions:
1. Combine the sweet potatoes with the water in a pot and soak for 30 minutes.
2. Remove the potatoes from the water. Bring the water to a boil and return the potatoes to the boiling water with the ginger slices. Cook the potatoes at a boil until fork-tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Stir the sugar into the water until completely dissolved. Remove the sweet potatoes to individual bowls and spoon the ginger syrup over the potatoes to serve.
