directions

  • Lightly oil the sweet potatoes and roast them in a 450 degree oven until cooked through, 30 - 50 minutes. Set them aside to cool.
  • When the sweeet potatoes are cool enough to handle (but still warm), cut them in half and scoop the flesh from the skins into a mixing bowl. Discard skins.
  • Add the butter, half-and-half, sugar, cinnamon, ginger, and orange juice to the sweet potatoes and mash until the sweet potatoes are smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste.

  1. Oh, this was exceptionally good. Served this at Thanksgiving dinner, but will definitely have it again, during the rest of the year! I must admit, I did cheat a little. Instead of using fresh sweet potatoes, I did use canned, but followed the rest of the directions exactly. Thnx for sharing your delicious recipe, Spice Boy. Made for My-3-Chefs 2009.

I'm a home cook in Washington, DC. I enjoy learning about new types of cuisine and I especially love spicy foods. My cooking style is comfort food with a global twist. Favorite cookbook: Anything from "The Best American Recipes" series. I have yet to make a recipe from those books that I didn't like! Pet Peeve: Picky eaters!!! You don't know what you're missing!
