How to choose good sweet potatoes
- You should choose good sweet potatoes that are round or elongated, without any waist or dents, that feel heavy when picked up, and are not too hard when pressed lightly; these are the ones that are less fibrous, starchy, and taste very sweet.
- Soft sweet potatoes (honey sweet potatoes) have a reddish-purple skin with honey-like streaks on the surface. When you cut a thin slice from the end of the sweet potato, you will see a light yellow color and sap flowing out.
- Starchy, fragrant, and crumbly sweet potatoes usually have a layer of powder or dirt on them. When you cut a thin slice from the end of the sweet potato, you will see a light orange color and sap flowing out. These sweet potatoes will be very sweet and crumbly when boiled.
- Avoid selecting sweet potatoes that are black or have spots; this is a sign that the sweet potatoes have spoiled, and consuming them will not be good for your health.

How to make Cheese Sweet Potato Sticks

Prepare the sweet potatoes
Add about 1 spoon of salt into a bowl of water (about 500ml of water).
Use a peeler to clean the skin of the sweet potatoes, wash them to remove the sap, then use a knife to cut them into bite-sized pieces. After cutting, put the sweet potatoes into the salted water to soak for 30 minutes to prevent them from turning brown.
Then wash the sweet potatoes again with clean water and let them drain.

Coating and frying sweet potatoes
Add 50ml of water to the tapioca starch, using chopsticks to stir well until the starch is completely dissolved.
Take each piece of sweet potato, dip it in the tapioca starch, then coat it with a layer of crispy frying flour, and place it on a plate. Repeat until all the sweet potatoes are done.
Heat a pan on the stove, add 500ml of cooking oil, and fry the sweet potatoes over high heat for about 5 minutes until they are evenly golden and cooked, then remove and place them on paper towels to absorb the oil.
How to fry sweet potatoes crispy and delicious
- When frying sweet potatoes, make sure the oil completely covers the sweet potatoes. To make the fried sweet potatoes crispier, you need to pay special attention to heating the oil until it’s really hot before adding the sweet potatoes to fry.
- Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the oil to help make the sweet potatoes crispier when frying.
- When the oil is hot and the salt is popping, add the sweet potatoes to fry, making sure to fry in small batches to ensure they are submerged in the oil.

Sweet Potato Shake
Pour the drained sweet potatoes into a bowl, add 50g of cheese powder, then cover the bowl with plastic wrap to prevent spillage during shaking.
Shake the bowl by hand so that the cheese coats the sweet potatoes evenly for about 1 minute.
Then remove the plastic wrap and transfer the cheese-coated sweet potatoes to a plate to serve.

Final Product
The sweet potatoes have a moderate natural sweetness, with a crispy exterior and a soft interior, complemented by the rich, savory cheese flavor.
Cheese-coated sweet potatoes are indeed a perfect combination; let’s enjoy this snack together!
How to preserve and the shelf life of dishes
- After frying, you should take a portion to eat, and once the potatoes have cooled down a bit, immediately store the rest in an airtight jar.
- If you can’t eat it all, place the sweet potatoes in a food container or a zip bag, seal it tightly, and store it in a cool place, away from direct sunlight.
- With the preservation method above, the dish can be kept for about 1 – 2 days.
