Ingredients

HOW MANY: Enough sweet potatoes for everybody!!

1 stick unsalted butter

1 cup brown sugar

Salt

Directions

Peel and slice sweet potatoes crosswise, about 1/2 inch thick

Heat skillet with about 1/2 inch oil

Layer sweet potatoes one a time in the skillet to fry light brown, turning as needed, and sprinkling with a little salt

Fry a few minutes, THEN

Remove to bowl

Pour off excess oil

Melt one stick butter in iron skillet and add 1 cup brown sugar

Return sweet potatoes to skillet, keep turning them gently until done and making sure they are coated well with sugar and butter

You can test to see if they are done

NOTE: For SAVORY SWEET POTATOES, fry in 1/4 inch oil, and a little olive oil. Omit the sugar, but add the butter. Cook covered. Add cumin, black pepper, or a little rosemary, and even some carmelized onions!
