step by step
Method
- Step 1
Roast the sweet potatoes
- Place the whole sweet potatoes on the grill or in a hot oven.
- Roast until they puff up a bit and the skin starts breaking away, with the sugars oozing out.
- Step 2
Melt the butter
- Melt a little butter in a hot pan (no need for the barbecue to be on).
- Step 3
Char the citrus
- Take a mandarin (or an orange, tangerine, or any citrus you like).
- Char it to heat up the juices inside and bring out the sweetness.
- Squeeze the juice into the melted butter.
- Step 4
Build the syrup
- Add about an ounce of Grand Marnier to the butter.
- Add a little maple syrup.
- Squeeze a little more of the citrus juice over the mixture.
- Step 5
Inject the sweet potato
- Inject the syrup inside the sweet potato, doing it very slowly so it doesn't squirt out.
- Pull the injector out and make a little well in the potato.
- Step 6
Finish and serve
- Spoon some more of the sweet buttery syrup over the potato.
- Add a little fresh herb.
- Add a little smoked salt.
- Serve and enjoy.
