Orange Scented Mashed Sweet Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Place sweet potatoes and 2-1/3 cups orange juice in a large saucepan or Dutch oven. Cover and bring to a boil. Boil for 35-45 minutes or just until potatoes are tender. Drain and place in a large bowl. Mash potatoes with the brown sugar, butter, salt, nutmeg, ginger and remaining orange juice.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Poke the yams several times with a fork or knife to pierce the skin. Place on foil or a baking sheet in the oven and bake for 1 hour.
• Let the yams cool for several minutes, then cut in half and scoop out the fluffy insides into a large bowl (I love eating the high fiber skin as a snack). Mash the yams with the butter, brown sugar or maple syrup, evaporated milk and salt until creamy and fluffy.
• Cut the oranges in half and slice a very thin disk from the bottom so they rest flat; the skins are going to be the "bowls." With a paring knife cut around the inside rim of the orange removing the orange sections and pulp. Place any of the orange juice and pulp in a bowl and discard the white membranes and seeds. Save the juice and pulp for a cranberry sauce recipe or just enjoy as a snack.
• Fill each orange cup with 1/4 cup of puree and top with several mini marshmallows (you can cover and refrigerate these overnight).
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the orange cups on a baking sheet and bake until the marshmallows are golden, 20 to 25 minutes (see Cook's Note). Serve.

Steps:

• Steam the potatoes in a large covered pan fitted with a steamer basket until they are tender, about 8 minutes.
• In a large bowl mash the potatoes with the buttermilk and orange juice. Stir in the zest, salt, and nutmeg. Serve the potatoes topped with the butter, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Cover sweet potatoes with cold water in a large pot and boil until fork tender. Peel the potatoes, transfer to a bowl, and mash. Stir in butter, orange juice and pecans, and mix until incorporated.
• For the orange shells, cut each orange in half and scoop out the pulp using a small knife or grapefruit spoon. Reserve the pulp for another use.
• Fill each orange shell with the potato mixture and top off with the marshmallows. Bake until hot and the marshmallows are melted.

Steps:

• Peel and coarsely chop the sweet potatoes. Cover with water and bring to a boil in a large pot. Salt the water and cook the sweet potatoes until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and return the sweet potatoes to the hot pot. Mash the potatoes with the stock and butter. Add in the orange juice and 2 tablespoons of the orange zest. Then add in the thyme, paprika, cinnamon and some pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Cover and remove from the heat and serve immediately. To keep warm, create a water bath by placing the pot of mashed potatoes in 1 inch gently simmering water in larger pot or deep skillet.
