SPICY SWEET POTATOES
The sweetness of the potatoes is offset by the spiciness of the Cajun pepper. Adjust the pepper to taste. My family absolutely loves this recipe!

SPICY SWEET POTATOES
My family fell in love with the combination of sweet and spicy in this potato side dish the very first time they tried it. It goes great with poultry...and looks so pretty on the dinner table. I try to serve it often. -Lynn Thomas London, Ontario

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Pierce sweet potatoes several times with a knife, then place in foil-lined roasting pan. Roast until potatoes are soft, an hour or longer. Cool.
- Meanwhile, poach cod in salted water to cover until it begins to flake, about 10 minutes. Drain well and cool. Combine ginger, garlic, shallot, cilantro, cayenne, allspice and a large pinch of salt in a small food processor and mince, or mince by hand.
- Scoop flesh of sweet potatoes into a bowl. Discard skins. Add fish and spices and blend with your hands. Taste and adjust seasoning. Shape into four hamburger-size patties.
- Place oil in a 12-inch skillet, preferably nonstick, and turn heat to medium. Wait until oil is hot, then add one fish cake; it should sizzle. If it does not, wait another minute before adding others. Cook cakes carefully so that they brown thoroughly without burning. Turn after 5 minutes and brown on other side. Serve hot, with lime wedges and more cilantro.
