Check out the recipe for making juicy Cilembu sweet potatoes that Dream has summarized from Diadona.

Ingredients and How to Make

Ingredients:

• 1 kg Cilembu sweet potatoes
• Baking tray and baking paper
• Oven as a cooking tool

Cooking method:

1. Wash the Cilembu sweet potatoes thoroughly, drain and remove both ends.
2. Make a small incision on the surface of the sweet potatoes using a knife. This is done to make it easier for the honey-like liquid in the Cilembu sweet potatoes to come out.
3. Arrange on a rack or baking tray, place on the bottom rack of the oven. Bake initially at a temperature of 170°C for 1 hour with both top and bottom heat. Place the baking tray or baking paper as a base.
4. Poke the entire surface of the sweet potatoes using a skewer. The poking is intended to speed up the process of extracting the 'honey' from the Cilembu sweet potatoes. Bake again at a temperature of 180°C for 30 - 40 minutes.
5. After cooked, leave it in the oven for about 5-10 minutes. Make sure the 'honey' comes out, if not, you can add more time while adjusting the temperature.
