"Not-Too-Sweet" Sweet Potato Casserole

3 lbs Yams, peeled, halved lengthwise  

           and cut into ½" slices.

6 Tbsp butter, melted

2 Tbsp honey

3 Tbsp Molasses

3/4 tsp salt

1 Tbsp Fresh Ginger, grated

¼ tsp cayenne pepper

1½ Tbsp cornstarch

Preheat oven to 375º.

Parboil the yam slices in boiling water for 4-5 minutes or until they are bright orange.  Drain yams well and place in a buttered 9"x13" baking dish.

Whisk melted butter, honey, molasses, ginger, salt and cayenne in a small bowl.  Set aside.

Mix cornstarch with 2 Tbsp cold water until totally smooth, then whisk into butter mixture and pour over yams and toss to coat well.

Cover dish tightly with foil and bake until liquid is bubbly, about 40 minutes.  Remove foil, stir potatoes gently, bake until liquid thickens to glaze potatoes, about 20 minutes longer.
