Sweet Potatoes with Cider & Brown Sugar
Source of Recipe
Internet
List of Ingredients
4 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
2 1/2 cups unsweetened apple cider
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
2-inch piece of cinnamon stick
1. In a large nonreactive saucepan, combine the potatoes, cider, brown sugar, 6 tablespoons of the butter and the cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil over moderate heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer, partially cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are very tender, about 45 minutes.
2. Let cool slightly, remove the cinnamon stick and pass the potatoes through the medium disk of a food mill or puree in batches in a food processor. Transfer to an ovenproof serving dish.
3. Preheat the oven to 325°. Dot the potatoes with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, cover with foil and bake, stirring once or twice, for about 20 minutes, until steaming. Remove the foil and bake for 5 minutes longer.
Make Ahead Tip:
The potatoes can be prepared through Step Two up to 4 days ahead. Cover tightly and refrigerate. Return to room temperature before proceeding.Recipe
