Sweet Potato Cakes in the Microwave

1. 1

   Add water into a container with a tight fitting lid (that's also microwave-safe).

2. 2

   Add the finely chopped sweet potatoes.

3. 3

   Drain the water, then add fresh water (just enough to soak the sweet potatoes).

4. 4

   Cover the container lightly and microwave for 4 minutes at 500 W.

5. 5

   Mix all ingredients with a whisk.

6. 6

   When the potato is done, drain the water (take care not to burn yourself!).

7. 7

   Add the mixture from Step 3 and mix lightly.

8. 8

   Lightly cover with a lid (as if you're only putting it on top!

9. 9

   Do NOT cover tightly).

10. 10

    Microwave for 2 minutes at 500 W. Steam for another minute to finish.

11. 11

    Use a chopstick and peel when you're taking it out from the container.

12. 12

    Here's how thick and fluffy it becomes if you use a smaller container and double the measurements.

13. 13

    Microwave for 4.5 minutes at Step 2, and 3 minutes at Step 4.

    Another update: If you make it with this container that's available at a 100 yen store.
