How to Make Papua New Guinea Baked Sweet Potatoes
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Cook 2 large sweet potatoes until tender (microwave, bake, or boil). Once cool enough to handle, peel and mash thoroughly.
- In a large bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes with 2 tablespoons of butter, 1/4 cup finely chopped onion, 1/4 cup milk, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Mix well.
- In a separate bowl, separate 2 large eggs, placing the whites in one bowl and the yolks in another.
- Beat the egg yolks until light and slightly thickened. Gently fold them into the sweet potato mixture.
- In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the sweet potato mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Grease a small (approximately 8x8 inch) baking dish. Pour the sweet potato mixture into the prepared dish.
- Place the baking dish in a larger roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the roasting pan to come about halfway up the sides of the baking dish (this creates a moist baking environment).
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden brown and the center is set.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
