Anyone eat sweet potatoes? One of my favorite foods, and I'm the only one I know that eats them. I don't understand why they aren't more popular. Much better than regular potatoes for just about everything IMO.

 

M'Fuckin word... Sweet Potatoes > *

 

Blasphemer!!!, Bacon > *

 

wtf where is the 'e' in the thread title

 

I eat them. Some butter & brown suger

Wrap them in a paper towel nuke on high for 11-15 minutes.

 

Anyone have any interesting baked ideas besides smothering them with butter and sugar?

I have 3 in my fridge right now.

 

I bake them on 350 for 90 minutes, then just eat them like a banana.



If any mods swing through here, can you add an 'e' to potatoes in the thread title please. Driving me nuts.

 

Can't stand em.

 

Season them and make sweet potato fries. Make dipping sauce if you want to too.

 

Burger place I go to has sweet potato fries. They are amazing.

 

Great idea. Ill do that tonight.

 

Sweet potatoes are awesome, and so easy to make using the microwave!

 

Awesome way to go. If you have a silicone baking sheet this works out to a nice crispy exterior and a moist interior.

You can also cut rounds and nuke them to par cook, then grill to finish.

Either way, Sweet Taters FTW

 

peel them and boil them till they're almost done
slice them an put them in a pyrex baking dish
pour maple syrup over them and heat for another 10-15 minutes on low heat.

 

I like them baked, no sugar/syrup or butter, or fried, I don't think I've ever had a sweet potato prepared in a fashion I didn't like it. My parents sometimes bake them, skin them, cut them up, mash them with brown sugar, butter and a little cinnamon put them in a casserole dish and bake for a while, pretty good but a little too much effort for me to make for myself.

 

Also try what iTimmy said about mashing them. I also add chunked canned pineapple in them too. Yummy.

 

i like em, but better than regular potatoes? No. Red Potatoes FTW!

 

Sweet potatoes are the shit.

Anyone try sweet potato chips?

 

korean style

 

 

baked sweet potato sticks i have tried

 

 

Good recipe I found for sweet potatoes:

Cut em in half (lengthwise)
Season with ground pepper, season salt, and garlic powder
Fire up grill and once preheated (350°F-400°F) place aluminum foil on grill
throw on potatoes flesh down and grill for 15-20 minutes flipping twice.

Really easy and man are they good. My girl likes to put al ittle sour cream on them afterwards. Not really into the sour cream so I eat mine plan. I might have to make them this weekend now

 

sweet potatoes are the domination
