Tzimmes is a traditional stew for Passover, made from a combination of sweet potatoes and dried fruit. This crowd-pleasing side dish is easy to make so be sure to have enough on hand.

Directions

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Cut carrots into 2-inch pieces. Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil, and lower heat to medium; add sweet potatoes in their skins, and cook for 20 minutes, adding the carrots after 10 minutes. Drain in a colander, and set aside until cool enough to handle.

  • Cover with foil, and bake for 30 minutes, basting with pan juices after 15 minutes. Remove from oven, and serve immediately.

I made this for Rosh Hashana and got lots of compliments! One note - the recipe says it makes 10 servings -- those would be VERY generous servings. If you are hosting an elaborate holiday meal, with many different dishes -- that is, if no one will take a HUGE portion of any one thing -- then this recipe is WAY more than enough. I had 8 people, and made a note for next year to halve the recipe. Also, may take longer to cook than stated - be prepared to leave in oven longer than the recipe says
