Rhodas Candied Sweet Potatoes Kicked Up Recipe 435

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Place the sweet potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet. Pierce the potatoes a few times with the tip of knife and rub with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Roast, flipping halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are soft all the way through, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and allow to sit for 5 minutes.
• Cut the potatoes in half and fluff the inside with a fork. Drizzle each half with a tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle each half with a few coriander seeds, lemon zest and flake salt. Sprinkle with the parsley leaves to finish if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a large heavy pot, combine the potatoes, sugar, water, orange juice, vanilla beans, orange zest, cinnamon, and salt. Bring to a simmer over high heat. Lower the heat, cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Strain the potatoes out of the sauce and place in a casserole dish. Return the sauce to the pan. Add the bourbon to the sauce and continue to cook until syrup is thickened, about another 15 minutes**. **I have found that I need to reduce the sauce for closer to 30 minutes, on medium-high heat. Pour the syrup over the potatoes and place in the oven. Bake until the potatoes are browned, about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the butter, stirring gently to incorporate. Serve immediately.

• Pour the coffee liqueur and cream over the potatoes. Spread the brown sugar evenly over the top and dot with the remaining butter.
• Cover the dish with foil and bake until the sweet potatoes are tender when poked with a sharp knife, about 50 to 60 minutes.
