Title: Sweet-Potato Tzimmes
Categories: Jewish Casserole
Yield: 8 Servings

4	lg	Sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
1		Butternut squash, peeled and diced
4		Tart apples, peeled, cored and diced
1/3	c	Passover wine, sweet, red
1/2	lb	Prunes, pitted and halved
1/3	c	Water
1/3	c	Sugar
1	ts	Cinnamon, ground
1/2	ts	Nutmeg, ground
1/2	ts	Ginger, ground

Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl. Mix well to distribute the liquid evenly. Dump into a baking dish and seal the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and a lid. Bake 1 hour at 350 F. Cool.

To serve, reheat, then empty into a serving dish. Don't serve it out of the pan you cooked it in (the movement into the serving dish squeezes juices out of the fruit).
