Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 5 pounds medium sized sweet potatoes or yams, unpeeled
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup good quality bourbon
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Preheat oven to 450f

  • Step 2: Pierce the sweet potatoes a few times, place in a roasting pan and roast for about 1 hour or until they are soft and slightly browned on the bottom

  • Step 3: Cool until you can handle them. Remove peel leaving as much of the carmelized potato as possible.

  • Step 4: Cut the potatoes into chunks, place in a food processor. You may have to process them in a couple of batches. Work them until they are pureed, add lemon and lemon zest mix well

  • Step 5: Combine the brown sugar and boubon in a pot and bring it just to a boil - remove right away. Add to sweet potatoes and stir until well blended

  • Step 6: You may now serve them or refrigerate until you wish to serve them allowing time to reheat them. Heat over a low heat stove top or heat in the oven covered for about 25 minutes
