I wanted to eat something without worrying about calories.When you take the parchment paper out of the frying pan, it could light on fire, so I put it in a pot that I had nearby.If you adjust the amount of sugar and oil then you don't have to worry about the calories as much. Recipe by baba709

I was given a bunch of sweet potatoes for helping out at a sweet potato digging contest. I wondered if there was a way to make easy candied sweet potatoes without oil and few dishes to wash.This easy recipe only requires cutting and mixing!Using a lot of sugar makes the potatoes even crispier. Recipe by Sakura

This recipe was created with cut sweet potato sticks, since that was the shape used in my family recipe. This eliminates the need to deep fry. The stick shape makes for easy cooking and eating, so this is one of my stand-by recipes.The trick to this recipe is to cook the sweet potato sticks evenly, without overcooking them. When the sweet potato sticks become soft, remove the lid and fry in oil. The outer surface will become crispy.Sweeten by adjusting the amount of sugar. For 2 to 3 servings. Recipe by yaburie

I love candied sweet potatoes but the labor put into them is disappointing. It's so much trouble to use oil... Omitting the oil and frying makes it easier to make. These are so good as a snack. I can eat half of these right up.Work quickly from Step 5! This is because the sugar could harden. Also, use coarse salt or good tasting salt. After the initial sweetness, the lingering salty taste is really delicious. If you don't have starch water, you can substitute it with 2 heaping tablespoons of sugar. Recipe by Chako@hokkaido

This is the recipe I've been using for 15 years.Water will collect on the lid, so wipe it off when you remove it. When cooled, the surface will harden like candy. (If it is a hot day, chill in the refrigerator). If you eat the potatoes while hot, you will burn yourself, so be careful. Recipe by annkoronn

My take on a favorite

First time making it actually, my family loved it!

This recipe is a delicious, welcome addition to any holiday table or even a decadent weekend dinner. It's really simple to make. Recipe adapted from: sallysbakingaddiction.com

This is something that I make often at home. There is a way of making them that uses mizuame starch syrup instead, but I just made a basic sauce with ingredients that I already had in my cupboard. They taste great even without soy sauce as well.Since these potatoes have been partially cooked in the microwave beforehand they can be fried quickly and have a crispy outside with a floury inside. Please don't overcook them though or the skin may fall apart.If you prefer your candied sweet potatoes with plenty of sauce, please increase the sauce amounts by 1.5x. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221
