Not recipes, per se, Ophelia, but you can substitute them for white
potatoes in potatoes au gratin or similar dishes. They are also good
cooked in chunks when added to a roast or stew. They make a good mash,
too, as you would with white potatoes. Unfortunately, many folks in the US
add a ton of sugar or brown sugar to their mashed sweet potatoes.

There is only one way I enjoy then sweetened, and that is in candied sweet
potatoes.
