Ingredients- 2 medium sweet potatoes
- 3 Tbsp water
- 500 ml milk
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash the sweet potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Then, use a peeler or a knife to carefully peel the skin off. While some enjoy the skin, removing it will result in a smoother texture for the latte.
Step 2
Once peeled, cut the sweet potatoes into roughly 2-3 cm cubes. Cutting them into bite-sized pieces will ensure they cook evenly in the microwave and are easier to blend later.
Step 3
Place the cubed sweet potatoes into a microwave-safe bowl. Sprinkle 3 tablespoons of water over the sweet potatoes. Adding a little water helps steam the sweet potatoes, making them extra tender and contributing to a creamier latte.
Step 4
Lightly cover the bowl with a lid or microwave-safe plastic wrap, piercing a few holes in the wrap. Microwave on high for approximately 10 minutes. Cooking time may vary depending on the size of your sweet potatoes and the power of your microwave. Check for doneness by piercing with a fork; it should go in easily when cooked.
Step 5
Carefully remove the cooked sweet potatoes from the microwave and let them cool slightly. Transfer the warm sweet potatoes to a blender along with 500 ml of milk. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. You can add a touch of honey or sugar to taste if desired. Serve warm or chilled.
