This is another Southern Favorite, that my mom always made when I was growing up. I added a little twist with the Orange Juice and Orange Zest, and liked it so much I have been using it since 1979.

1Cook sweet potatoes in boiling water for 15 minutes. Cool. Peel potatoes and cut in half lengthwise.

2Add remaining ingredients to fry pan. Arrange potatoes on top, cut side down.Cook slowly on medium low heat,UNCOVERED basting frequently to prevent sticking, for about an hour or until potatoes are tender and well glazed.
