Sweet-potato tzimmes

8 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
4 larges Sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
1 Butternut squash, peeled and diced
4 Tart apples, peeled, cored and diced
⅓ cup Passover wine, sweet, red
½ pounds Prunes, pitted and halved
⅓ cup Water
⅓ cup Sugar
1 teaspoon Cinnamon, ground
½ teaspoon Nutmeg, ground
½ teaspoon Ginger, ground

Directions

Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl. Mix well to distribute the liquid evenly. Dump into a baking dish and seal the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and a lid. Bake 1 hour at 350 F. Cool.

To serve, reheat, then empty into a serving dish. Don't serve it out of the pan you cooked it in (the movement into the serving dish squeezes juices out of the fruit).
