Instant Pot Okinawan Sweet Potatoes, Two Ways: Pressure Cooked & Mashed
Report
I recommend trying Okinawan sweet potatoes, also known as Hawaiian sweet potatoes. They are so delicious, nutritious, and easy to prepare. My favorite way is to pressure cook them in an Instant Pot however you can also cook them in a pot on your stovetop as well (see notes). This recipe is a "cook once, eat twice" recipe. Use the Instant Pot to cook all of the sweet potatoes, them serve half of them pressure cooked, plain and simple right out of the pot for your first meal and then make a sweet potato mash for your second meal. Of course, if you like them plain or you like them mashed, serve all of the Okinawan sweet potatoes in the way you prefer.

Ingredients
- 4 pounds Okinawan sweet potatoes (approximately 8-10 medium, 6-8 ounces each)
- 1 cup water
- ¼ cup coconut milk or other alternative milk optional, add 1-2 tablespoon as needed
Instructions
Make mashed potatoes
Notes
- Stovetop cooking instructions: Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes. Place in a 6-8 quart stock pot and arrange the sweet potatoes as evenly as possible. Add enough water to cover the sweet potatoes and bring the water to a boil and then simmer on medium low heat for 40 minutes until you can poke through them with a fork.
- Calorie count is approximately 220 per 6 ounce sweet potato. The actual calories for the mashed sweet potato may vary according to how much coconut (or other) milk you use.
