Yield: 1 servings

Ingredients and directions for this recipe

6 lg Sweet potatoes 1/2 c Water
2 tb Margerine Pinch salt
3/4 c Dark brown sugar Pinch ground ginger

Place potatoes in a large pan; cover with cold water. Bring to a
boil; cook 10 mins. Plunge potatoes in cold water to stop cooking.
When cool enough to handle, peel and discard skin. Cut potatoes into
thick slices or chunks; refrigerate. If desired, this can be done
the day before.

In a large nonstick skillet, melt margerine. Add brown sugar, water,
salt and ginger. Bring to a simmer; add half of potato slices in one
layer. Cook at a slow boil over medium heat until potatoes are brown
and crisp around the edges. Turn; brown on other side. With a
slotted spoon, transfer potatoes to a platter; reserve in a warm
place near the stove. Add remaining potatoes to skillet; cook as the
first batch. Serve immediately. Makes 8 servings.
