Baked Sweetpotatoes with Tropical Orange-Raisin Sauce 8 small sweetpotatoes 1 1/2 cups orange juice 1 (8-ounce) can pineapple chunks in their own juice 1/2 cup raisins 3 tablespoons packed brown sugar 2 tablespoons cornstarch Sweetened shredded coconut (optional) Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Wash and scrub sweetpotatoes; pierce them with a small knife or fork. Place them on a baking sheet and bake until they are tender when pierced, about 45 minutes. (or, to microwave, place sweetpotatoes in batches in a microwave-safe dish; microwave on high about 6 minutes per pound or until tender when pierced.) When sweetpotatoes are nearly done, combine orange juice and pineapple juice from can in a saucepan; cut each pineapple chunk in half then add to juices along with raisins and brown sugar. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, whisking often. Smoothly mix cornstarch with 3 tablespoons of water. Whisking constantly, slowly add cornstarch mixture to sauce. Stir until sauce bubbles and thickens, 30 seconds to 1 minute. To serve, cut each sweetpotato open, fluff insides with a fork, and top with a generous spoonful of sauce. Offer coconut to add to taste. Makes 8 servings Recipe provided courtesy of CooksRecipes.com
