Kumara or Sweet Potato Pie (New Zealand) image

POSTED FOR ZAAR WORLD TOUR 5. This mouthwatering kumara pie is Kiwi. A delicious alternative to pumpkin pie. The sweet potato is first steamed and then blended with a mixture of dark brown sugar, eggs, milk and warm spices like cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. The mixture is baked in a basic pie shell for about 35-40 minutes. The result is a deliciously smooth, sweet pie with a fragrant aroma. From http://australianfood.about.com.

  • Prepare the sweet potatoes properly. Scrub the potatoes well to remove any dirt or debris. Then, poke them a few times with a fork to help them cook evenly.
  • Cook the sweet potatoes until they are tender. You can bake them, microwave them, or boil them. The cooking time will vary depending on the method you choose.
  • Mash the sweet potatoes until they are smooth. Use a potato masher, ricer, or food processor to get the desired consistency.
  • Add your desired seasonings and mix well. This is where you can get creative and add your own personal touch to the dampers.
  • Form the sweet potato mixture into balls and then flatten them into patties. Make sure they are not too thin, or they will fall apart when you cook them.
  • Cook the dampers in a pan with a little bit of oil until they are golden brown on both sides.
  • Serve the dampers warm with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include butter, honey, or maple syrup.
