INSIDE-OUT SWEET POTATOES (SURE, IT IS FOR THE KIDS)
I normally shy away from recipes with more than 5-6 ingredients or steps, but this one is an exception. Instead of the normal sweet potato casserole, try making these instead (for the kids of course - oh what the heck, adults love these too!). Marshmallows encased in mashed sweet potatoes, rolled in cornflake crumbs and then fried. What a guilty pleasure! They can also be baked, but use a baking mat or parchment if baking them. From "Screen Doors and Sweet Tea - Recipes and Tales from a Southern Cook" by Martha Hall Foose.

Steps:
- Put the cornflake crumbs in a shallow dish or pie pan. Beat the egg with 1 teaspoon water in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Combine the mashed sweet potatoes with the butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, baking powder, flour, orange juice and vanilla. Working with your hands, use the mixture to encase each marshmallow, forming a ball. (If the sweet potato mixture seems too soft to hold its shape, stir in some of the crumbs to thicken it.) Dip each ball in the egg wash and then roll in the crumbs. Refrigerate while preparing to fry.
- Preheat the oven to 200°. Set a wire rack over newspaper or paper towels to drain the balls after frying.
- In a 2-quart saucepan, heat the oil over medium-high heat to 375°.
- Fry the balls one or two at a time for 3 to 4 minutes, turning as needed, until lightly browned. Remove with a slotted spoon and place the drained balls on the prepared rack and in the oven to keep warm while frying the remaining batches. Serve warm.
- ***NOTE: To make mashed sweet potatoes, preheat the oven to 375°. Place the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and bake for 40 minutes, or until tender and easily pierced with the tip of a sharp knife. Allow to cool in their jackets. When cool enough to handle, halve them, scoop out the flesh, and mash it with a fork or potato masher.

- Rinse and scrub sweet potatoes well. Peel all of the potatoes and cut into roughly 1-2 inch cubes. The exact number of pieces isn’t important, just try to keep all of the potato pieces about the same size so they steam evenly.
- Place a steamer basket inside a large pot. Add water to the bottom of the pot until it comes up just to the bottom of the steamer basket, but not over the sweet potatoes. Add a good pinch of salt to the water. Add the sweet potato cubes to the top of the basket.
- Cover the pot with a lid. Heat the water on medium-high until it starts bubbling. Then steam the sweet potatoes for 20-30 minutes. To check if they are done, pierce one of the pieces of sweet potato with a fork to make sure it’s tender all the way through.
- Remove the sweet potatoes to a large bowl. Add butter, milk, ¼ teaspoon of salt and maple syrup. Whip with the beaters of an electric mixer until smooth or mash with a potato masher. Then serve and enjoy!

- Grab a fork and pierce each sweet potato several times all over. Place the sweet potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a Silpat. Bake until the sweet potatoes are tender and easily pierced with the tip of a sharp knife, about 40 minutes, depending on the size of the sweet potatoes. Allow the sweet potatoes to cool in their skins. When cool enough to handle, use a knife to halve the potatoes lengthwise and then scoop out the insides from the skins into a bowl. Mash the sweet potatoes with a fork or potato masher until smooth.
- Combine the mashed sweet potatoes with the butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, baking powder, flour, orange juice, and bourbon, sherry, or vanilla extract.
- Place the crushed cornflakes in a shallow dish or pie plate. Beat the egg with 1 teaspoon water in a small bowl.
