We had something like this on Midwest Express Airlines, and it was great.
| 6 medium sweet potatoes, about 3 pounds, peeled and cut into 1/2” cubes |
1 cup mayonnaise |
| 1 1/2 cup chopped celery | 1 cup sour cream |
| 3 scallions, sliced | 2 Tbs. cider vinegar |
| 1-20 oz. can crushed pineapple, well drained and juice reserved |
3 Tbs. honey |
| 1 sweet red bell pepper diced | 2 Tbs. packed brown sugar |
| 1 cup golden raisins, plumped in pineapple juice | salt and pepper to taste |
Place cubed potatoes in cold water until water to cook them in is boiling. Bring a large pot of water to the boil. Add sweet potatoes and cook until just tender but still hold together, about 5—7 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water and let cool. Plump raisins in pineapple juice to cover in microwave for 1 minute. Let stand to cool and drain. Place potatoes in large bowl adding celery, scallions, pineapple, pepper and raisin. Gently mix. In small bowl combine mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, honey, brown sugar and salt and pepper. Mix well and gently toss with sweet potatoes. Cover and chill 2 hours for flavors to blend. Serves 6-8.
