Barbados Sweet Potatoes - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 large sweet potatoes
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon ground habanero chile pepper (or any pure chili powder)
1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
3 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
2/3 cup fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon jamaican dark rum
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350\u00b0.
Prick each potato several times with a fork and wrap each one in foil.
Bake for 1 hour or until the potatoes give slightly when you touch them.
Let them cool in the foil while you prepare the pan.
With your fingers, coat a 13 x 9 inch baking pan (Pyrex) with vegetable oil.
Remove the foil from the potatoes and , when they are cool enough to handle, peel and cut into 1/2-inch thick slices.
Layer the slices in the pan.
Mix the butter, chile powder, brown sugar, ginger, orange and lime juices, rum, and allspice in a small bowl until smooth.
Drizzle the mixture over the potatoes.
Cover the dish with a sheet of foil and bake for 15-20 minutes, until they are barely tender.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, until the topping just begins to crisp; serve hot or warm.
