Notes
Top tips
- Cut the sweet potatoes into similar sized cubes (½-inch) so they cook at the same rate.
- Use a large skillet with a well-fitting lid. The lid is important because the sweet potatoes steam during the first part of cooking.
- I prefer to peel the apples because the skin can stay a little firm once cooked, but you can leave it on if you’re short on time.
