I had sweet potato and salad as my lunch today. in here, there are three kind of sweet potato - White, yellow ones and purple ones. The most sweet is yellow color, and purple ones sometimes a bit bitter. The one that I had today was white one. We just steam it for today, but sometimes we fry that or make it as patty ball with coconut sugar mixed into it. Have you try to eat this kind of sweet potato?

@Vree0937 We steam it. For sweet dish, we mash it well and mix it with milk and add some sugar or jaggery. Else we eat it with butter, garlic, salt and pepper

I like sweet potatoes especially the yellow ones. We usually have these boiled or we make sweet potato chips or crush the sweet potato, mix it with some flour and fry it

@Vree0937 I like it that way without any sweetener. Possibly your sweet potatoes the aren't as sweet as ours are and you might need the additional sweetener but I find what I use brings out the sweetness.
