Time 4h25m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup firmly-packed dark brown sugar
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Kosher salt
5 pounds medium sweet potatoes (about 7), peeled and sliced into 1-inch-thick rounds
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup walnut pieces
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup pomegranate seeds
1/4 cup fresh parsley leaves, roughly chopped

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven, and preheat to 350 degrees F. Stir together the sugar, butter, cinnamon, cumin and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl.
  • Toss the sweet potatoes with the cornstarch in a large mixing bowl. Transfer half the sweet potatoes to a 6-quart slow cooker. Spoon half the sugar-butter mixture on top. Add the remaining potatoes and sugar-butter mixture. Cook, covered, on low until the sweet potatoes are tender but not mushy, about 4 hours.
  • Meanwhile, spread the walnuts out on a baking sheet, and bake until very golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool, then roughly chop.
  • When the sweet potatoes are tender, gently stir in the lemon juice. Transfer the potatoes to a shallow serving dish, and let sit for 10 minutes (the sauce will thicken as it sits). Toss the potatoes in the sauce to coat. Sprinkle with the chopped walnuts, pomegranate seeds and parsley.

POMEGRANATE SWEET POTATOES

I don't like sweet potatoes, but this is good tasting and almost good for you. I love the convenience of plastic wrapped sweet potatoes that cook in the microwave for 4 minutes. Baking your own would work too.
