Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Cut the sweet potatoes into small chunks and soak them in water to remove starch and prevent discoloration.
  2. Boil the chunks for 15 minutes until soft.
  3. Drain and mash in the pot with a fork. If you have time, strain to a purée.
  4. Add the butter, sugar, cream (or milk) and vanilla, and mix well. If the mixture seems too soft, heat it briefly to dry it out a little.
  5. Shape into 2-inch-long ovals using plastic wrap.
  6. Mix 1 egg yolk with 1/2 tbsp water and brush over the tops. Sprinkle with toasted black sesame seeds.
  7. Bake at 200°C (390°F) for 10 minutes, or in a toaster oven for about 5 minutes, until browned and shiny on top.
