Brown Sugar Glazed Sweet Potatoes with Marshmallows

Preheat the oven to 190 degrees C (top/bottom heat). Place the sweet potato cubes in a baking dish. In a saucepan, bring the sugar, butter, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, and ginger to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Pour this mixture over the potatoes and mix well. Cover with aluminum foil and place in the oven. Bake for 50 minutes. Remove the aluminum foil and bake for about 20 minutes longer, until the potatoes are tender and the syrup has thickened slightly. Increase the oven temperature to 230 degrees C, add the marshmallows and almonds to the potatoes, and bake for about 5 minutes, until the marshmallows begin to melt and the almonds begin to brown. Remove from the oven and serve.
