Sweet Potato Rice: The Subtle Sweetness Makes Me Happy!

My mother taught me this recipe, and I adjusted the amounts.

Put the cut up sweet potato in a bowl of water right away, or it will turn black.
Put the sake in the rice cooker with the rice, before filling with water. If you add it after filling up the water to the line, there will be too much liquid.
Even with the sweet potato added, you can use the regular amount of water used to cook 3 rice cooker cups of rice.
I sliced the sweet potato 1.5 cm thick, and then quartered the slices. Recipe by Hamumaki
