Mash

1

Cut the top off the sweet potato like removing a lid and scoop out the seeds

Place it in a pot and add water up to halfway

2

Put the lid on the sweet potato and cover the pot

Let it cook for 1 hour or until it's tender

Remove from the pot, take out some of the pulp with a spoon

3

Mash the pulp in a ricer and reserve

In a small pot, combine the brown sugar, salt, and water and cook over high heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until the sugar is completely dissolved (about 1 minute)

4

In a medium pot, combine the sweet potato pulp, the reserved ingredients, and the remaining ingredients

Cook over high heat, stirring constantly until you get a creamy mixture (about 10 minutes)

Serve the mash inside the hollowed-out sweet potato, as shown in the photo above.
