Applications:
The sweet potato can be consumed as pures, fried, roasted. Recently, my mom tossed them into a grain stew and left a nice sweet taste. To boil it and not lose its properties, they can be added to the water when it is boiling. If possible, it can be steamed.
Generally, I usually prepare it as puree or baked. To bake them I do the following: the hair, the beak as if I were going to make French fries, I put them on a tray, I throw salt and a little oil and put them in the oven. I remove them when I taste them they feel that they are crispy.
