7-Minute "Quick Steamed" Sweet Potatoes

You can enjoy the enhanced flavor of sweet potatoes in minutes by using our "Quick Steam" method of cooking.

Prep and Cook Time: 7 minutes

Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Fill the bottom of the steamer with 2 inches of water.
  2. While steam is building up, press or finely chop and let sit for at least 5 minutes.
  3. Cut Sweet Potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes.
  4. When water comes to a boil carefully add Sweet Potatoes. Cover steamer with a tight fitting lid and steam for 7 minutes. Sweet Potatoes are done when they are fork tender.
  5. Transfer to a bowl. For more flavor, toss Sweet Potatoes with the remaining ingredients while they are still hot. Research shows that fat-soluble vitamins

    and carotenoids found in foods, such as Sweet Potatoes, may be better absorbed when consumed with fat-containing foods like extra virgin olive oil..
