--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1      lg            Sweet potato
   2      tb            Light brown sugar
   2      ts            Olive oil
   2      ts            Margarine
   1      tb            Water
   1      tb            Parmesan cheese -- grated
   6      oz            Fresh spinach pasta

Prick the sweet potato in several places, place on a paper towel, and
microwave until tender, 8 to 9 minutes, turning half-way through
cooking time. Let stand until cool enough to handle, then slip off
skin.

Put a large pot of water on to boil. Pre-heat broiler and spray, or
lightly oil, a baking sheet.  Cut potato crosswise into 1/2" slices
and place on prepared sheet.

In a small saucepan, combine sugar, oil, butter and water. Cook over
medium heat, stirring constantly, until sauce is smooth and bubbly,
about 2 minutes. Reserve about 2 tb of sauce. Brush remaining sauce
over potato slices, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, and broil until
slightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes.

Cook fettucine according to package directions, drain well, and toss
with reserved sauce. Mound pasta on serving plates and top with
potato slices.
