Provided by lmaley

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into quarters
1 cup water
Will also need a cheese cloth

Steps:

  • Preparation Preheat heat oven to 425 degrees. Place chopped potatoes and ½ cup of water into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, covered with foil. Bake for 1 hour covered and 15 minutes uncovered. Remove dish from oven and add remaining half cup of water to loosen up any bits in the baking dish. Place all the solids and liquids into a strainer lined with cheesecloth. Let drain into a saucepan and cool for 30 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, squeeze as much liquid out from the potatoes in cheesecloth as possible. You should end up with a cup and a half of liquid. In a saucepan, bring the sweet-potato liquid to a boil, then reduce heat for a steady simmer. Allow the liquid to reduce for 15-20 minutes until it starts to thicken and starts to form a caramel; stir often in the final minutes. Pour into a jar and in store the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Can be served with roast meats or as a sauce over ice cream or brownies. Oh, and don't forget to eat the leftover sweet potato mash!

### Tips 1. To make the potatoes extra crispy, be sure to cut them into even-sized pieces and toss them in a generous amount of olive oil. 2. If you don't have a cast iron skillet, you can use a large nonstick skillet instead. Just be sure to preheat the skillet over medium-high heat before adding the potatoes. 3. Don't overcrowd the skillet when cooking the potatoes. Cook them in batches if necessary, so that they have room to brown evenly. 4. Be patient when cooking the potatoes. It will take some time for them to become crispy all the way through. 5. If the potatoes start to stick to the skillet, add a little bit of water or chicken broth to the pan. 6. Once the potatoes are cooked, season them with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add your favorite herbs and spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika. ### Conclusion Frisco's Exploded Potatoes are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. With their crispy exterior and fluffy interior, these potatoes are sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
