Ingredients:
3 lb. sweet potatoes
5 Tbs. butter, melted
8 Tbs. brown sugar
1/4 cup dark rum
1/4 tsp. grated nutmeg
1/2 tsp. salt
5 tangerines
3 Tbs. chopped pecans

Instructions:
Boil the unpeeled sweet potatoes until soft, about 20 minutes. Peel and
mash. Add 3 tablespoons of butter, 6 tablespoons of brown sugar, the
rum, nutmeg, and salt. Blend well. Peel the tangerines, and remove the
membranes. Cut the segments from 3 of the tangerines into halves, and
fold them into the potato mixture. Turn the mixture into a greased
2-quart casserole. Remove seeds from remaining tangerine segments, and
arrange fire tangerine pieces on top of the pudding. Combine the
remaining 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons sugar with the pecans,
and sprinkle this mixture on top. Bake at 350F for 30 minutes.

Serves 6-8
