Jacket Sweet Potatoes!Here is my very complicated recipe for a jacket sweet potato! haha
I find having a jacket sweet potato makes a delicious change to having a normal jacket potato. Sweet potatoes have tons more vitamins that normal potatoes and they count towards one of your five a day, unlike normal potatoes.
Great for diet junkies!
Ingredients
Sweet Potato
Filling
Method
Whack your sweet potato in the microwave for 9 minutes and voila! If you want to retain some vitamins you can do it in the oven. Pre-boil then stick in oven for about half hour.
Then slice down the middle and add your filling.
I recommend cottage cheese - delicious (and low fat!)
Baked beans are fantastic as well.
You can pretty much stick in there whatever you want.

I never find it works too well, Emma. I love sweet potatoes, but when I bake them they're very wet. I ususally do about 5 or 6 mins in the microwave, and then crisp the skin by putting it in the oven for about 5 mins, but have never really been too impressed at the result. Any ideas?

I just do mine in the microwave. I don't get crispy skins, but they have never come out wet.
Our microwave is a bit dodgy though so maybe it just dries them out or something.
I have never had the patience to do them in the oven. I have no idea you know!
