SWEET POTATOES WITH BOURBON AND BROWN SUGAR
These silky mashed sweet potatoes are spiced with cloves, nutmeg and a little black pepper, brightened with lemon zest, and spiked with bourbon (or orange juice, if you'd prefer). Puréeing them in a food processor yields the smoothest, airiest texture, but for something a little more rustic, you could mash them by hand. Whichever you choose, these reheat well, either in a microwave or in a pot over low heat.

Tips:
- Select the Right Sweet Potatoes: Choose firm and smooth sweet potatoes without blemishes or bruises. Look for medium-sized potatoes for even cooking.
- Prick the Potatoes: Use a fork to prick the potatoes all over before baking. This allows steam to escape during cooking and prevents them from bursting.
- Use Parchment Paper: Line the baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the potatoes from sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Don't Overcrowd the Pan: Place the potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet, ensuring they are not touching each other. This promotes even cooking and browning.
- Roast at High Temperature: Bake the potatoes at a high temperature (400°F or 200°C) to caramelize the natural sugars and achieve a crispy exterior.
- Flip the Potatoes: Flip the potatoes halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning and cooking.
- Check for Tenderness: Insert a fork or skewer into the center of a potato. If it easily pierces through, the potato is cooked.
- Season to Taste: Once cooked, season the potatoes with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices or herbs. You can also drizzle them with melted butter or olive oil for extra flavor.
Conclusion:
Brown sugar sweet potatoes are an easy and delicious side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals.
