I got many nice sweet potatoes, so I made this dish to enjoy the great sweet potato taste.

Sweet potato and butter proportion is 10:1. Adjust the amount of salt depending on the net weight of the sweet potatoes. It is best to tuck in as soon as this dish is cooked but it is still nice when cooled down. Recipe by Yumitarosan

Steps

1

Slice the sweet potatoes diagonally 1 cm thick, then cut into 1 cm wide sticks.
2

Soak the potatoes in water for about 10 minutes then drain well.
3

Heat butter in a large pan, then the sweet potatoes, but don't pile them up on each other. Cook over medium heat.
4

Shake the pan to spread the melted butter. Flip the potatoes over occasionally by shaking the pan.
5

If it is difficult to flip them over, use a spatula. However, be careful not to crush the potatoes.
6

Shake for a while after the potatoes have turned golden brown and are coated in butter, then sprinkle with salt. Enjoy!

This recipe is quite salty, so if you don’t like salty food, reduce the salt down to 2/3 teaspoon.
