help with a recipe
I found this on Pinterest and want to make it for dinner. When it says "
1. Bake sweet potato. Peel, place in large mixing bowl." Do I just heat it up in the microwave, then wait for it to cool before peeling it? How long should I microwave it for?
I wish I wasn't such a newbie when it came to things like this....
Re: help with a recipe
I would put the sweet potato on a foil-lined baking sheet and roast it in a 400 degree oven until cooked (about an hour, depending on the size. Poke a couple holes in it first). When it cools, it will be really easy to cut into and scoop the insides out into the bowl.
Those burgers sound good!

I Pinned that too, it looks great!
I cook my sweet potatoes in the microwave often and I think it would work for this recipe. I use the "baked potato" setting so I really don't have advice as to how long to cook them.
I bake my sweet potatoes in the microwave using this method.
After washing and trimming any questionable spots, poke holes in the potato all over with a fork. Wrap the potato in paper towel and cook on high for 5 minutes. Turn over and cook for another 5 minutes on high.
I find large potatoes take the full 10 minutes, but smaller ones can be done in the first 5 minutes.
Split the potato and scoop out the flesh. It should mash easily.
