SHERRIED SWEET POTATOES



Sherried Sweet Potatoes image

Sort of a pudding-like side dish. It takes about 5 medium sweet potatoes to equal 4 cups. If you use cooking sherry, omit the salt. If you want to get fancy, you can sprinkle the top with sliced almonds or finely chopped pecans during the last 5 minutes of baking. The preparation time does not include the time to initially cook the sweet potatoes--I do this in batches in the microwave, but have found the time to vary quite a bit depending on the microwave (my current one works much faster than my former one). I microwave them just until they're soft enough to mash.

Peel the sweet potatoes, cut them lengthwise into sixths, and cut the lengths crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces. Peel, core, and cut the apples lengthwise into sixths and cut the wedges crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces. In a large heavy skillet cook the apples in the butter over moderate heat, stirring, for 3 minutes, or until they are softened.
