I'm not sure what went wrong, but my sweet potatoes turned out mushy. I think I might have overcooked them.

These sweet potatoes were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I would recommend using less ginger next time.

I added a bit of brown sugar to the recipe and it turned out great. The sweet potatoes were caramelized and had a delicious glaze.

These sweet potatoes were the perfect side dish for my roasted chicken. They were sweet, savory, and had a little bit of a kick from the ginger.
