Bake sweet potatoes by preheating the oven to 400°F (200°C), scrubbing the potatoes clean, and piercing them with a fork. Place them on a baking sheet and bake for 40–60 minutes until soft. Baking brings out their natural sweetness and creates a tender texture.
To deep fry sweet potato fries, cut peeled sweet potatoes into thin strips, pat them dry, and fry in hot oil at about 350°F (175°C). Cook in batches for 3–5 minutes until golden and crispy, then drain on paper towels and season immediately.
Sweet potatoes can be baked, roasted, mashed, sautéed, or fried depending on the recipe. Start by peeling or scrubbing the potatoes, cutting them as needed, and cooking with spices, herbs, or sweet toppings for different flavors and textures.
