Packed with nutrients, it’s a highly recommended snack for children. While egg sluts are often made with kabocha squash, using sweet potatoes results in a wonderfully soft and delicious dish. This satisfying and tasty treat is perfect as a snack or a hearty brunch menu. Let’s get started making this delightful Sweet Potato Egg Slut!
Ingredients- 2-3 medium steamed sweet potatoes
- 1 large egg
- Generous amount of shredded pizza cheese
- 1 pinch of salt
- A little parsley flakes for garnish
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, thoroughly wash the sweet potatoes. Then, steam or bake them until they are tender. Many convenient methods exist nowadays for steaming sweet potatoes in the microwave, so feel free to use whatever method works best for you. Cooking them until soft enhances their natural sweetness.
Step 2
Once the sweet potatoes are steamed and cooked, carefully peel them. Place the peeled sweet potatoes into a microwave-safe dish. Use a fork or a potato masher to mash the sweet potatoes until they are smooth and lump-free. You’ll love the sweet aroma that fills the kitchen.
Step 3
Spread a generous layer of shredded pizza cheese over the mashed sweet potatoes. Next, create a small well in the center of the mashed sweet potatoes and carefully crack an egg into it.
Step 4
To prevent the egg yolk from exploding in the microwave, gently prick it a few times with a fork. Lightly sprinkle a pinch of salt over the yolk to enhance its flavor. If you have parsley flakes, sprinkle them on top now for a beautiful presentation – I actually forgot to do this until after cooking!
Step 5
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and poke a few small holes with a fork to allow steam to escape, or use a microwave-safe lid. Microwave on high for about 3 minutes. This cooking time will result in a perfectly runny yolk (soft-boiled). If you prefer a fully cooked yolk (hard-boiled), extend the cooking time by an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Step 6
Voila! Your delicious Sweet Potato Egg Slut is ready!
Step 7
The cheese pull is absolutely amazing, just like it came straight from a hot oven! The combination of sweet, soft sweet potatoes, savory cheese, and a perfectly cooked egg is simply divine. Each bite is an explosion of sweetness, savoriness, and creamy texture. Enjoy this delightful Sweet Potato Egg Slut for a wonderful meal!
