Meanwhile quarter the kumquats, removing any large seeds
& combine w the sugar, strawberries & a pinch of salt & mint if desired.
Load the yam mix into an oven proof serving dish, top w/ the
shredded coconut & sliced almonds and put under the broiler for 2 to 3 mins
until the top begins to turn golden brown.
We love to think outside the Harvest box & bring fruits
to every course of the meal. The
maple syrup adds flavor & a hint of extra sweetness. Try this as a traditional gratin using
cream or half & half. If using
half & half add a teaspoon of flour or cornstarch. This is great cold for breakfast w/
granola too.
