Nutritional values
Sweet potatoes are low in fat, but rich in minerals and vitamins. In particular, the tubers provide the cell-protecting beta-carotene. Our body can absorb this fat-soluble substance particularly well when some fat is used.
If you want a bit of variety, you can try using Hokkaido squash instead of sweet potato.
