- Place the lid on the steamer and then place in the microwave.
- Microwave for 5 minutes.
- Remove the lid, allow the steam to release, shake the sweet potatoes and do a fork test to see how much longer they need to cook. We cooked ours for a further 3 minutes.
- When the microwave beeps, allow the steam to release and do a fork test to make sure the sweet potato cubes are fork tender. Then transfer to a serving dish.
