Our state produces a lot of oranges and raisins, which give this dish its unique flavor. The delicious sauce lifts sweet potatoes out of the ordinary.

This was okay, but nothing I would serve again. The orange juice gave it a strange taste.

Pretty good. I added 1 tsp cinnamon and doubled the raisins. Wondering if it would be good with apple juice instead of orange; might try that next time.

Really good and easy to make, as a short cut I used Schwans frozen Roasted Sweet Potatoes.
