4 medium sweet potatoes, cooked and sliced
2 cups cheese sauce (see below)
1 tablespoon grated coconut
1 fresh pineapple, peeled cored and sliced
2 tablespoons chopped spring onions
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1/4 teaspoon salt
Cheese Sauce:
1 tablespoon butter
1 heaped tablespoon flour
2 heaped tablespoons grated cheese
11/2 cups milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
pepper to taste
Grease a baking dish. Arrange in layers, sliced pineapple, sliced sweet
potato, grated coconut and spring onions. Spread cheese sauce. Repeat
layers until all sweet potato and pineapple have been used. Bake in a hot
oven for 30 minutes. Serve hot as a vegetable with cooked meat or fish.
To prepare cheese sauce: Melt butter, stir in flour using a wooden
spoon. Cook over gentle heat for 3 minutes without browning. Remove from
heat and gradually stir in half the milk, stir until well blended. Return to
heat, cook slowly until sauce thickens, stirring all the time. Gradually add
remaining milk. Bring to the boil. Add grated cheese and salt and pepper to
taste, mix well. Makes 2 cups.
