INGREDIENTS 
4 large sweet potatoes
1/3 cup butter
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
3 Tablespoons water
2/3 teaspoon salt
DIRECTIONS 
- Place whole sweet potatoes in a steamer over a couple of inches of boiling water, and cover. Cook until tender, about 30 minutes. Drain and cool.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Peel, and slice cooled sweet potatoes. Slice into 1/2 inch slices. Place in a 9x13 inch baking dish.
