1
Boil sweet potatoes
If using fresh sweet potatoes, place whole sweet potatoes in a large pot or Dutch oven, and cover with water. Bring the sweet potatoes to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover and cook for 25 to 40 minutes or until tender. Drain the sweet potatoes, and let them cool slightly. Peel the sweet potatoes, and cut them into chunks.
