Sweet Potato Recipes
Here are 3 sweet potato recipes for glazed sweet potatoes, sweet potato balls, sweet potato croquettes.
Glazed Sweet Potatoes
Wash and pare six medium-sized sweet potatoes. Cook 15 minutes in boiling water. Drain and put in a buttered pan. Make a syrup by boiling these ingredients for 3 minutes:
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon butter
Brush the potatoes with syrup and bake 15 minutes; basting twice with the remaining syrup.
Note: The recipe does not give an oven temperature, but I would estimate about 350 degrees.
Sweet Potato Balls
2 cups riced sweet potatoes
3 tablespoons butter
1 beaten egg
Salt and pepper to taste
Mix ingredients well. Form in balls, roll in flour, and fry in deep fat. Drain on unglazed paper. If too stiff, a little milk may be added to the mixture.
Sweet Potato Croquettes
Follow the recipe for potato balls, and dip the balls in slightly beaten egg to which has been added 1 tablespoon water for every egg. Roll in sifted bread crumbs. Fry in deep fat, drain and serve hot.
