MELTING SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Add the potatoes, butter, cinnamon and salt to a medium bowl and toss to coat. Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for 15 to 18 minutes. Flip the potatoes, then drizzle with the maple syrup and continue to bake until the potatoes are golden brown and crisp on the outside but soft on the inside, an additional 15 to 18 minutes. Arrange on a platter and sprinkle with the pecans and chives.

ROASTED SWEET POTATO SLICES

Steps:

• In a small bowl whisk together the oil, butter and salt and pepper to taste.

• Roast them in the oven on the upper third or middle layer of a pre heated 450 degree oven turning once.
• Bake for about 18-22 minutes or until golden crisp.
• Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with salt to taste.

ROASTED SWEET POTATO SLICES

• In a small bowl whisk together the oil, the butter, and salt and pepper to taste. Arrange the potato slices, not touching, in rows on an oiled baking sheet, brush them with the oil mixture, and roast them in the upper third of a preheated 450°F. oven, turning them once with a spatula, for 18 to 22 minutes, or until they are golden and crisp. Transfer the potatoes to paper towels to drain, sprinkle them with the coarse salt and pepper to taste, and serve them warm.

GRAMMA'S GLAZED CANDIED SWEET POTATO SLICES

Steps:

• Submerge potatoes in water. Bring to a boil & simmer until they are a cooked a little more than half way through. Check with a tooth pick.
• *** It is important to NOT overcook because they will continue to cook when simmering in the brown sugar glaze.
• When done boiling, pour off all the hot water and run cold water over them until they are cooled off. Do this as quickly as possible, running and changing the water until the potatoes are completely cold. This may take a few minutes. Drain. They can now rest for hours if need be.
• In an electric skillet, slowly melt butter until completely melted.
• Add enough light brown sugar to absorb all the butter.
• (I am not 100% of the amount listed above). Continue to use a low/medium heat until all the brown sugar melts and is no longer grainy. This can take up to an hour. You can let it bubble a bit around the edges but not too hard. Continually stirring w/ a spatula.
• In the mean time: peel your potatoes. I do this GENTLY with a paring knife.
• Slice thickly at least 3/4". If you cut them too thin, they will fall apart while cooking. Set aside in single layers.
• Once the sugar is ready & gooey, no longer grainy, place the slices, one by one, side by side, in the skillet. DO NOT move them around until ready to flip.
• When the edges of the slices are gathering a candy coating and darkening, flip them. The 2nd side will not take as long to cook.
• Gently lift out and place in a single layer on a warmed serving platter. I use a pie server to serve.
