Japanese "sweet potato" is a creamy and buttery dessert made with naturally sweet and delicious "satsumaimo" (Japanese sweet potatoes). Shaped into miniature versions of the vegetable itself, then toasted and sprinkled with black sesame seeds, these adorable sweets are the perfect Autumn treat!

what you'll need:

» sweet potato » sugar » honey » mirin » butter » vanilla essence » double cream » egg yolk » black sesame seeds

Peel & cut

Peel the sweet potato and cut into 1-2cm slices (approx 1/2 inch). Cut larger pieces in half.

Soak

Place the slices in a microwavable bowl of cold water with a pinch of salt. Soak for 5 minutes.

Drain the water, wash the slices with running water and place them back in the bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave for 5-6 minutes at 600W.

3

Mash

Carefully peel back the plastic wrap and mash thoroughly while it's still hot. (Use an oven glove or towel to protect yourself from burns when holding the bowl.)

4

Mix

Add sugar, honey, mirin, butter, vanilla essence and cream to the bowl. "Knead" everything together with a spatula.

5

Work mixture through a sieve

Scoop the mixture into a sieve and scrape it through using a spatula to make it smooth.

6

Divide and shape

Divide the mixture into equal pieces and shape into ovals. Place in flattened cupcake cases on a baking sheet.
