Maple Glazed Sweet Potatoes

Total time: 60 minutes
    These are not overly sweet - no mini-marshmallows.  The taste of the sweet potatoes shines through and is enhanced, rather than overpowered, by the maple.

 Ingredients:

• 24oz (1 1/2 lb, 720gr) sweet potatoes, 2 large
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 tbs butter
• pinch of nutmeg

 Instructions:

• Peel sweet potatoes and cut into 3/4 inch (2cm) rounds (the short way).
• Cook in boiling, salted water until just tender, easily pierced with a knife.
• Remove and drain. 
• While potatoes cook heat the syrup, butter and brown sugar to boiling in a small saucepan.
• Reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes.
• To assemble: Lay the potatoes in a baking dish just large enough to hold them all easily.  Don't fuss with the layers but do spoon a bit of syrup over each potato slice.
• Pour the rest of the syrup over the top and bake, uncovered, 350F (175F) for 30 minutes.
• Baste once after 15 minutes with the syrup from the bottom of the baking dish.   Serve.
