Prep Time: 45 min
Yield: 10 portions
6 ea. Sweet potatoes, skin on, washed well
3 ea. Pears, peeled and diced
1 pt. Apple cider
2 Tbsp Honey
4 oz Butter, browned
1/4 tsp. Chinese Five Spice
1 Tbsp. Cognac
t.t. Salt & Pepper
Simmer the diced pears in cider until tender, cool and strain; reduce the cider to 1/2 cup & reserve.
While the pears are cooking, bake the sweet potatoes until tender, peel and discard the skin, pass the sweet potato through a sieve, fold in the remaining ingredients and taste, adjust seasoning to your test.
If you prefer, simply split the baked, sweet potato and enjoy as is or with butter melted on top.
Place the sweet potato puree into a casserole and heat in the oven. Can be made a day ahead.
