hi,friend,i ate many times,in my childhood days....we used to boil them as it is and eat along with sugar touch...some times when we go fields we fry them in a fire and eat after removing the peel.

HEY LADY, I love sweet potatoes to. i like to bake them & when they get done split them open & put butter & brown sugar on them. yum! i also like to peel the, slice them & put them in a iron skillet w/alt of butter & white sugar & a little water & cook them down till they make a good syrup. I also make a sweet potato casserole my kids like. If u would like the recipe pm me. bet u already have it cause' i know u are a good cook.

I am so glad you started this discussion! I used to make a beef stew using sweet potatoes and haven't done it in a long time. I made it similar to regular beef stew, only adding sweet potatoes instead of regular ones. Then I put in beans (red or black), green beans, corn and tomatoes. (can't have enough 'toes'). For seasonings I used chili powder, cumin, a bit of oregano and salt and pepper. It's a visually appealing dish with all the different colors, and a little different than what most people are used to. Hmmmmm....I think I'll make that tonight. Thanks!

To be honest I have never tried sweet potatoes. Do they taste sweet? I must try them at some stage, at least before I die lol. And they are good for the skin as you say so they do have health benefits

I did not know this, Do you mean sweet potatoes are dangerous for health then. I usually boil them and have them with milk. In my village my mother used to put sweet potatoes in firewood in earthen stoves and they tasted very delicious. You can also make halwa and bread with sweet potato. But anyway we do peel off

Yes, yams or Sweet Potatoes are very healthy for you. I love sweet potatoes.

Hello! Thatš nice about sweet potatoes but in my country we don't have sweet potatoes unfortunately we have just simple ones that we eat a lot...When I used to live in UK I saw that there were sweet potatoes sold in the streets and markets but but here in Europe in my country we don't have them...

I love sweet potatoes. I eat them baked, boiled, and in the microwave. My daughter makes them on special occasions by slicing them and adding molasses, orange juice and cinnamon. She cooks it all in a pan until the sweet potatoes are soft. They are good and I know they are good for us.

wow, that good news and i am gonna try it as i like to have pretty skin look fine outside and my guy would love me more..i eat it by mixing in viand or just boil or fried they really taste delicious...

Interesting post. I had no idea that they could help your skin, I knew they were better for you than white potatoes though. Unfortunately, I hate the taste except in sweet potato casserole. I guess I will have to find ways to make them so that I and my family will eat them. Thanks for the post!

Hello Aw! i love sweet potatoes. What we do to prepare it is to boiled it until cooked and pair with salt. Or spread some butter on top of it. It's best to eat it when hot. My Mother also friend it with brown sugar. Serve with coffee. Thanks for sharing sweet potatoes benefits. I actually dont know its positive effect to skin. Great to know...
