  Prepare the sweet potatoes

  First, with 350g of sweet potatoes that you bought, use a peeler to peel the skin, then rinse directly under running water until clean, and drain, using a knife to cut them into bite-sized pieces.

  Next, prepare a bowl of cold water diluted with 2 teaspoons of tapioca flour and 2 teaspoons of salt. Then, soak all the cut sweet potatoes in this mixture for 10 minutes.

  Finally, drain the water, rinse the sweet potatoes several times with clean water, and let them drain.

  Coating sweet potatoes with breadcrumbs

  Then, you add all the drained sweet potatoes to the bowl of batter, using a spoon to mix well so that the sweet potatoes are completely coated in the batter.

  At the same time, you put 150g of breadcrumbs on a plate. Next, use chopsticks to pick up each piece of sweet potato and coat all sides with the breadcrumbs. You continue doing this until you run out of sweet potatoes!

  Tip: To minimize the breadcrumbs sticking to the sweet potatoes when frying, you can let the coated sweet potatoes rest for about 20 minutes!

  Fry sweet potatoes

  After preparing the sweet potatoes, you place a pot on the stove with 400ml of cooking oil and heat it on high flame. Once the oil is hot, gradually add the sweet potatoes that were rolled in breadcrumbs and fry for about 5 minutes.

  When you see the sweet potatoes turning yellow, reduce the heat to medium and continue frying for another 3 – 5 minutes until the sweet potatoes are golden brown on both sides, then remove them to a plate to drain the oil. Keep doing this until all the sweet potatoes are used up!
