TWICE-BAKED SWEET POTATOES WITH BACON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. Scrub sweet potatoes; pierce each several times with a fork. Place in a foil-lined 15x10x1-in. baking pan; bake until tender, 1 to 1-1/4 hours. Cool slightly., Cut a thin slice off the top of each potato; discard slice. Scoop out pulp, leaving thin shells. In a large bowl, mash pulp with butter, salt and pepper; stir in cheese and bacon. Spoon into potato shells., Return to pan. Bake until heated through, 15-20 minutes.

MASHED SWEET POTATOES WITH BACON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Pierce the potatoes all over with a fork and place on a baking sheet. Bake until completely soft, about 45 minutes. Let cool slightly. Split the potatoes in half, scoop out the flesh into a medium bowl and set aside. Discard the skins.
• Cook the bacon in a large saucepan over medium heat, stirring, until crisp, 8 to 9 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel¿lined plate. Add the bourbon or cider to the drippings in the saucepan and cook until mostly evaporated, about 30 seconds. Add the potatoes, heavy cream, butter, maple syrup and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt; mash with a potato masher until smooth and warmed through.
• Transfer the potatoes to a bowl; top with the bacon and drizzle with more maple syrup before serving.

SWEET POTATO LYONNAISE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the onions. Season with salt and pepper and cook the onions, stirring often, until softened and browned around the edges, about 5 minutes. Transfer the onions to a bowl.
• While the onions are cooking, peel and cut the sweet potatoes into 1/4-inch slices.
• Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet, swirling to prevent burning. When the butter has melted, cover the bottom of the skillet with as many potato slices that will fit in one layer (this should be about half of the potatoes). Cook until the potatoes are deeply browned on one side, about 4 minutes. Remove to the bowl with the onions. Add the remaining potato slices, and then spread the cooked onions/potatoes over top. Season with salt and pepper, pour in the chicken broth and cover the skillet.
• When the potatoes are partly tender with some resistance, about 3 minutes, use a metal spatula to flip the bottom layer to the top and continue cooking. (Don't worry; it will take 3 to 4 flips to transfer all the browned potatoes to the top.) Cook until the potatoes are tender, about 2 more minutes. Remove the lid, raising the heat to medium-high and allow the remaining liquid to evaporate, about 3 minutes.

YAMS LYONNAISE WITH BACON

Steps:

• In a large pan, add the butter and olive oil. Heat on medium or medium low heat.
• Add onions to the pan.
• Saute onions until mostly caramelized. Low heat is better since you want the onions to caramelize and not burn.
• While the onions are caramelizing, poke holes in yams. Place on plate with a little water. Bake them in the microwave until a fork can be poked into them easily and they're firm but not hard, roughly 20 minutes. Let the yams cool enough that you can handle them. Slice them. They may break apart. That's okay!
• When the onions are mostly caramelized, remove from pan and dice.
• Add the uncooked bacon into the hot pan.
• After the bacon is thoroughly cooked, add the onions, yams, and brown sugar. Heat through until the sugar is dissolved and everything is combined. Add salt to taste.
• Enjoy!
