A robust, satisfying and flavourful midweek treat
Put a deep pan of water on to boil and salt it lightly.
Peel 800g of sweet potatoes and cut them into large pieces – the size you might cut them if making for roast potatoes – then cook in a steamer basket over the boiling water for about 15 minutes, until they are approaching tenderness. Drain them in a colander and then put them in a large mixing bowl.
