I'm rating this on my view only since DH nor DD had anything nice to say, but then again neither of them like sweet potatoes so it was a losing battle to begin with... I liked these very much. The combo of flavors was wonderful with the slightly sweet from the potatoes. I used 5 spice instead of ginger because I was out. I served it with baked chicken and fresh greenbeans. Thanks for submitting.

The flavors blend quite well and make a good combination. I think that the cover should be lifted for the last 10 minutes of baking time.
