Ingredients

  • 260 grams Sweet potato (about 1 medium size)
  • 20 grams Unsalted butter
  • 45 grams Sugar
  • 1 Egg (medium)
  • 50 grams Milk (4.0% fat or higher)
  • 10 drops Vanilla oil
  • 2 tsp Cointreau (optional)

Method

  • Peel the sweet potato, cut into small pieces to cook easily.
  • Soak in water to remove the bitterness.
  • Drain and cover with cling film.
  • Microwave until tender and mash.
  • Add the sugar, egg, milk, butter, vanilla oil (or vanilla beans) and Cointreau (optional), and mix until smooth.
  • If you like a smoother texture, you can put the mixture through a sieve.
  • Put the mixture in a piping bag, and pipe into paper cups in a swirling motion.
  • If you pipe the mixture into the sweet potato skin, make sure not to leave air inside.
  • Bake in the oven for about 20 minutes at 220C, until brown.
  • If you use the sweet potato skin as a container, it will look like a baked potato!
  • Brush egg yolk on the surface before baking.
  • Brush on orange marmalade to finish.
  • If you put sweet azuki bean paste balls in the middle when piping out the mixture, they will have a Japanese taste.
  • They have a nice, dense texture and are delicious.
  • Add chopped orange peel if you like.
  • Adding chopped orange peel makes them more refreshing and they will have a sophisticated taste.
  • If you use the baked "Mitsu imo", you can make these easily with a little butter and no sugar.
  • They are so delicious!
