Sweet Potatoes In Coconut Milk Recipe

	Peggy_cookingfool / All my dishes 1 year, 1 month ago This is a delicious way to serve Sweet Potatoes. I served it with Red Curry Glazed Pork Loin Roast but could see having it with my Thanksgiving turkey for a nice change of pace. It has all the Thai flavors I love.
