Candied Sweet Potatoes Or Yams

Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into slices. Place them in a large pan of water with the salt and white sugar and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover the pan and let cook at a slow boil for 30 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender.

Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Drain the potatoes well then place in a baking dish. Sprinkle the potatoes evenly with the brown sugar and cut up butter.

Place the baking dish in the oven and bake at 350 degrees F for 20 minutes. Top the sweet potatoes evenly with the miniature marshmallows. Return the pan to the oven and bake until the marshmallows are golden brown and starting to melt.

Serve the candied sweet potatoes with marshmallows hot.
