Pineapple Coconut Potatoes image

There's nothing like Long Island potatoes...and this recipe gives them a bit of tropical flair with pineapple, coconut, soy sauce and ginger. My family thinks they're out of this world! The potatoes are a hit whenever I've served them-at barbecues, holidays and more-and I've often had requests for the recipe.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my potatoes turned out mushy. I think I might have cooked them for too long.
