3 medium-size sweet potatoes (about 1 1/2 pounds total) or 2 cans (18 ounces each) sweet potatoes, drained and cut up 2 medium-size tart cooking apples, cored and sliced
1/3 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons apple juice

Recipe
Peel and slice fresh sweet potatoes. In a large saucepan, cover the
potatoes with water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat and
simmer, covered, for 8 to 10 mins or until potatoes are almost tender.
Drain. (Or use canned sweet potatoes.) Meanwhile, in a 12-inch skillet,
combine the apple slices, brown sugar, apple juice, butter, allspice
and
nutmeg. Bring to a boil over moderate heat. Lower the heat slightly and
cook, uncovered, for 3 to 5 mins or until apples are almost tender and
juice mixture is slightly thickened, stirring occasionally. Gently stir
in the sweet potatoes. Cook, uncovered, for 5 to 10 mins more or until
apples are tender and sweet potatoes are heated through, spooning the
juice mixture over potatoes occasionally. Makes 6 servings. Per
