Ingredients
- 2.5 - 3 pounds sweet potatoes peeled and cut into 2-inch chunks
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups orange juice
- 1 tablespoon orange zest
- 1 teaspoon fresh Rosemary chopped
- 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 6 tablespoons butter
Instructions
- Place the sweet potato chunks in a large pot and cover with a couple of inches of cold water. Add the salt and bring to a boil. Boil for 7-10 minutes or until they start getting tender but not fully cooked. Drain and set aside.
- Mix the remaining ingredients in a large sauté pan and bring to a boil on high heat. Cook until the sauce reduces to a syrup.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Add sweet potatoes to a large, lightly buttered casserole dish, add the sauce, and toss gently to combine.
- Bake until the sauce reduces to a syrup and the potatoes are tender, about 10-15 minutes. Serve hot.
