Growing up, I don't think I ever realized you could make them any other way.
Mom's Sweet Potatoes
Figure about 1 sweet potato per person.
- Peel and slice them about ½ - ¾ in. thick.
- Boil them in water until just fork tender. (Don’t over cook them or they'll become mushy.)
- Drain them, and then put them in a baking dish.
- Put pats of butter/margarine all over them, and sprinkle brown sugar over the top. (You’re trying to make a syrup.)
- At this point you can put them in the refrigerator, if you're going to cook them later.
- When ready to cook, just warm them in the oven.
- Just before serving sprinkle marshmallows over the top, and toast them (watch carefully) at about 400 degrees or more.
