Orange-scalloped sweet potato

6 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
medium Size sweet potatoes
Sugar
Butter
Several oranges
Buttered bread crumbs

Directions

Select medium-sized sweet potatoes & cook in boiling salted water until almost tender. Peel & slice. Put a layer of potatoes in a greased baking dish, sprinkle generously with sugar & dot with bits of butter. Add another layer of potatoes & repeat until baking dish is filled. Squeeze the juice & pulp from several oranges. Discard seeds. Pour over the potatoes. There should be enough orange juice to come almost to the top. Sprinkle buttered bread crumbs over top & bake in a moderate oven (350) until potatoes have absorbed most of the orange juice & the top is lightly browned. Serve with roast pork or baked ham.
