Ingredients
- 2 large Sweet Potatoes (Camote)
- 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
- 1 cup Vegetable Oil
- 4 pieces Bamboo Skewers
Instructions
- 1Peel the 2 large Sweet Potatoes and cut them into 1-inch cubes.
- 2Thread the sweet potato cubes onto the 4 pieces of Bamboo Skewers, making sure they are secure.
- 3Pour the 1 cup of Vegetable Oil into a large, heavy-bottomed pot or deep skillet. Heat the oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- 4Carefully add the skewered sweet potatoes to the hot 1 cup of Vegetable Oil. Fry them for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and golden brown on all sides.
- 5While the sweet potatoes are frying, sprinkle the 1/2 cup of Brown Sugar evenly over them. Continue frying for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sugar to melt and caramelize, coating the sweet potatoes.
- 6Using tongs, carefully remove the skewers from the hot oil. Let any excess oil drip back into the pot for a moment.
- 7Place the caramelized sweet potato skewers on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any extra oil. Let them cool slightly for about 2-3 minutes before serving.
