- Cook the sweet potatoes until they are very soft: This will ensure that they are easy to mash and will create a smooth, creamy casserole.
- Use fresh cranberries: Fresh cranberries will give the casserole a brighter, more tart flavor than dried cranberries.
- Don't overcook the cranberries: Cranberries only need to be cooked for a few minutes, or they will become mushy.
- Use a combination of spices: The spices in this recipe (cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger) all complement the sweet potatoes and cranberries perfectly.
- Don't be afraid to experiment: Feel free to add other ingredients to the casserole, such as chopped nuts, raisins, or marshmallows.
