RUM SWEET POTATO PIE



Rum Sweet Potato Pie image

"This is a rendition of my grandmother's world-famous pie - although she didn't have booze in hers!" says Eddie.

Provided by Eddie Jackson

Categories     dessert

Time 3h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/4 pounds sweet potatoes (3 medium)
1 piece refrigerated pie dough (or 1 disk homemade dough; see page 122)
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup dark rum
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon minced peeled fresh ginger
Pinch of kosher salt
2 large eggs
1 cup canned coconut milk
1 cup cold heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon grated orange zest

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Prick the sweet potatoes all over with a fork and place on a rimmed baking sheet; bake until tender, about 45 minutes. Let cool, then peel off the skins and puree the flesh in a food processor until smooth. (You?ll need 2 cups sweet potato puree.)
  • Gently roll out the pie dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Ease into a 91/2-inch deep-dish pie dish; fold the overhanging dough under itself and crimp the edges. Line the crust with foil and fill with dried beans or pie weights. Bake until the crust is just golden around the edges, about 15 minutes. Remove the foil and beans and continue to bake until the crust is golden on the bottom, about 15 more minutes. Let cool.
  • Combine the sweet potato puree, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, the brown sugar, melted butter, 3 tablespoons rum, the vanilla, cinnamon, ginger, salt and eggs in a large bowl. Beat with a hand mixer until combined. Add the coconut milk and continue to mix. Pour the filling into the pie crust and bake until the filling is set, 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 25 minutes. (Cover the crust with foil if it gets too dark.) Place the pie on a rack and let cool, about 2 hours.
  • Pour the heavy cream into a bowl and beat with the mixer until thickened. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons granulated sugar, the remaining 1 tablespoon rum and the orange zest. Whip until stiff peaks form. Serve the pie topped with the whipped cream.

SWEET POTATOES WITH RUM



Sweet Potatoes with Rum image

This side dish is decadent with the addition of the rum, but not as sweet as those that use marshmallows. If you substitute the orange juice, add some freshly grated orange zest too, for a real flavour punch.

Provided by Lennie

Categories     Yam/Sweet Potato

Time 1h20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 medium sweet potatoes
4 tablespoons margarine or 4 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup dark rum (substitute freshly-squeezed orange juice if you wish; it will taste different though)
1/2 cup golden raisin

Steps:

  • Boil the whole, unpeeled, sweet potatoes until tender but not too soft-- it will take anywhere from 20 to 40 minutes depending on the thickness of your potatoes.
  • Drain and, when cool enough to handle, peel and slice into 1/4-inch slices.
  • Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
  • Arrange the slices in an attractive overlapping pattern in a buttered shallow baking dish.
  • Dot with butter pieces, then sprinkle with brown sugar and raisins, if using.
  • Drizzle the rum over all.
  • Bake in preheated oven, uncovered, until bubbly and glazed, about 30 minutes.

SWEET POTATO BALLS WITH VANILLA RUM SAUCE



Sweet Potato Balls With Vanilla Rum Sauce image

I got this recipe from Paula Deen, play around with it some, and added my own concoction of a vanilla rum sauce- Mmmm. Now Paula makes them with giant marshmallow, I prefer the smaller ones (it's a little more work, but it's a better ratio of potato to marshmellow, and they're bite sized!) These are for those people with a bounce-me-off-the-wall-with-all-the-sugar-I-just-consumed sweet tooth. Not for the faint of heart. Blow away your in-laws during the Holidays with this gem. Or stab them with a toothpick, and you've got an awesome hors d'eurve on your hands.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h55m

Yield 32 balls, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 large sweet potatoes
1 2/3 cups brown sugar
1/4 cup vanilla rum (or regular rum with a tbsp of vanilla extract)
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1/8 lb butter
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 teaspoon orange zest (optional)
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
2 cups sweetened flaked coconut
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
32 miniature marshmallows, 1 per ball (about half a package)
1/2 cup pecans (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Bake the sweet potatoes with the skin ON (brush with oil, poke holes with a fork, and leave in the oven for about 45 minutes)
  • Once they finish, peel and mash them. Set oven to 350 degrees.
  • Stir in only 2/3 cup of brown sugar, all orange juice, all orange zest and all nutmeg.
  • Place coconut in a food processor and leave on for about 30 seconds.
  • In a small bowl, combine coconut, granulated sugar and cinnamon.
  • Press mashed potatoes around the marshmallow, creating a 1" in diameter ball. The easiest way is to roll it around using both hands. You'll be a pro in no time!
  • Roll the balls in the coconut mixture and place in a 9x13 casserole dish.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes.
  • Now, while those are cooking, make your drizzling/dipping sauce: In a big pan melt the remaining brown sugar (1 cup) and butter.
  • Add rum and heavy cream.
  • Put all pecans (optional) in the food processor for about a minute. Then add them to your sauce.
  • When the sweet potato balls are done, gingerly drizzle the rum sauce on them, or place the sauce in a condiment cup to the side.

Tips:

  • Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for firm, smooth sweet potatoes with no blemishes or bruises. Smaller sweet potatoes will cook more evenly and are great for roasting whole. For mashing, larger sweet potatoes can be used.
  • Wash and peel the sweet potatoes thoroughly: Scrub the potatoes with a vegetable brush to remove any dirt or debris. Then, use a sharp knife to peel the skin off. If you are short on time, you can leave the skin on, but it will be tougher to eat.
  • Cut the sweet potatoes evenly: If you are roasting or grilling the potatoes, cut them into uniform pieces so that they cook evenly. For mashing, you can cut them into larger chunks.
  • Season the sweet potatoes well: Sweet potatoes have a naturally sweet flavor, but they can be enhanced with a variety of seasonings. Common seasonings include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cumin.
  • Cook the sweet potatoes until they are tender: The cooking time will vary depending on the method of cooking and the size of the potatoes. In general, you want to cook the potatoes until they are fork-tender.
  • Serve the sweet potatoes immediately: Sweet potatoes are best served hot or warm. If you are making them ahead of time, reheat them gently before serving.

Conclusion:

Sweet potatoes are a versatile and delicious vegetable that can be enjoyed in many different ways. With their naturally sweet flavor and high nutritional value, they are a great addition to any meal. The recipes in this article provide a variety of ways to prepare sweet potatoes, from simple roasted potatoes to more complex dishes like sweet potato soup and sweet potato casserole.
