Sweet potato bun

Prepare one sweet potato, 3 eggs, 300 grams of flour, 4 grams of yeast powder, 10 grams of white sugar, 800 milliliters of milk, and an appropriate amount of cooking oil. Wash the sweet potatoes, peel them, cut them into thin slices, and steam them in a steamer for ten minutes. Pour out the excess water from the steamed sweet potatoes and put them in a bowl, then add sugar and mash the sweet potatoes into pieces. Let it cool, add yeast powder, beat two eggs and mix well. You must let the sweet potatoes cool down, otherwise they will not ferment well. Be careful when adding milk and mix it with the mashed sweet potatoes.

Add the flour; do not add all at once, stir while adding. After kneading the dough, cover it with a lid and place it in a gentle place to ferment until it has doubled in size. The fermented dough will look like a hornet's nest. Put some flour on the chopping board. Take out the fermented dough and knead it on the chopping board. Knead the dough into long strips and cut into pieces of the same size. You can cut it into more than 20 small doughs and sprinkle them with flour to prevent them from sticking together. Turn the small dough inward so that the surface will be smoother and more beautiful.

You can add a little more flour to the sticky parts, and sprinkle dry flour on all the small doughs. Cover with a plastic bag to prevent it from drying out and leave for 30 minutes. The dough will be twice as large as before and will feel light when you hold it. Don't leave it for too long, otherwise the cake will collapse. Put cooking oil into the electric baking pan and heat it over low heat.

Press the prepared dough slightly and place it in the electric baking pan. Fry on low heat until both sides are golden brown, and there is sugar inside the sweet potatoes. It's easy to get mushy, so you have to turn it over quickly. Stand the pancake upright and fry the sides until golden brown. It's done when everything turns golden brown.
