Ingredients for Sweet Potato

(serves 4)

2 Sweet Potatoes (gross weight 500g/1.10 lbs, net weight 300g/0.66 lbs)

50g Sugar (1.76 oz)

20g Butter (0.71 oz)

60ml Dairy Cream (0.254 u.s. cup)

1 Egg Yolk

1/2 tbsp Rum

A Few Drops of Vanilla Extract

1 Egg Yolk for Gloss Finish

1/2 tsp Water

Black Sesame Seeds

** Note: Reduce the microwave time to 3 minutes on each side of the potatoes for a full sized American microwave. The microwave we use (500 watt) also works as a conventional oven. Cook sweet potatoes in a microwave for the first time. Then bake them at 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius) in a conventional oven.
