Sweet Potatoes.

How do you cook sweet potatoes well in the microwave? I don't have an oven/stove i can use...

Most sweet potatoes you buy have instructions on the packet, but I guess micro them for 5 mins and check to see if you can run a knife thru easily

on that subject are sweet potatoes called as a potato or a veg?

 

[bigsahm21]

veg i think. but should i saran wrap it or something or just nuke it?

on a plate covered with what we in the uk call microvave/cling film

May want to poke some holes in it w/ a knife first or you could have an exploding potato in a hot microwave

I've never seen sweet potatoes in a packet..

For the original poster, most micro's have potato button. Just stab it with a fork and press the button.

Yep, you can buy the ones pre-wrapped but you dont get much out of them. I cook them like a potato as well.
