<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'">Sue, I made this yesterday and it is da bomb diggity And it was even nicer today

I substituted 2% milk for the coconut milk and added a little more oil. I ran out of garam masala and used seasoned curry as you recommended. Here is the final product in a bowl on the Jesusalem plate. Garnished with fresh savory and thyme from my garden

Ingredients:
1/3 cup Tomato Ketchup
1/3 cup Soy sauce
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon each finely grated lime zest and lime juice
6 cloves garlic, minced
4 sweet potatoes, cut into wedges
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper
chopped chives (optional)
Combine the ketchup, soy sauce, honey, lime zest, lime juice and garlic in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Simmer until very thick, about 10 minutes. Reserve.

Preheat the oven to 350 F. Toss the sweet potatoes with oil, salt and pepper. Spread out, skin side down, on a foil lined baking sheet. Cook for 25 minutes. Turn broiler on to high.

Brush potatoes all over with sauce and broil in the middle of the oven for 5 to 10 minutes longer, brushing often with additional sauce. Sprinkle with chives before serving.

Twists: For a grilled version, pre-boil sweet potatoes and finish on a hot grill after brushing with sauce. For a creamy twist, serve with soy sour cream or homemade ranch or garlic dressing for dipping. For other vegetable variations: Try this sauce on carrots, squash, other tubers or parsnips, too.

<span style="font-weight: bold">*note that because mi lazy, me'eda just cook the sweet potatoes, not until they're fully done, then i'd make them slow soak on the stove* also, the ones i've had at a koren restaurant did not have the skin on.</span>

i don't like using my oven, because it's too much work to clean. and i can't stand a dirty oven or stove.
