Method:

Boil the whole sweet potatoes in their skins for about 20 minutes or until tender. Cool and peel, cut flesh into 1 cm slices and arrange in a roasting pan.

Mix all the other ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to the boil for 1 minute. Pour over the sliced sweet potatoes and bake in a preheated oven at 180 ºC for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure the potatoes are well covered.
