Orange Glazed Sweet Potatoes
Ingredients
  • 6 medium sweet potatoes
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4 whole cloves, or more to taste
Instructions
1
Begin by submerging sweet potatoes into a substantial container filled with salted water; initiate boiling. Gradually decrease the heat to a moderate level and maintain a gentle simmer until the sweet potatoes are tender but still retain some firmness, approximately 18 to 20 minutes.
2
Drain the water from the pot and proceed to remove the skins of the sweet potatoes by cutting them lengthwise. Discard the discarded skin.
3
In a large cooking vessel, combine brown sugar, butter, orange juice, salt, and cloves to create a harmonious mixture. Bring the ingredients to a rolling boil.
4
Gradually lower the heat and allow the mixture to simmer for 5 minutes, resulting in a syrupy consistency.
5
Arrange the cut sweet potatoes halves into the syrup and continue to simmer for 20 to 25 minutes, allowing them to absorb the flavors.
6
Before serving, you may choose to remove the cloves from the syrup if desired.
