Directions

1. Step

Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into small pieces. Steam or fry them until soft, then mash them thoroughly in a bowl using a slotted spoon. Add 2 tablespoons of milk and mix well. Transfer the mixture into a plastic bag and set aside.

2. Step

In a mixing bowl, beat the egg and add a pinch of salt. Mix well. Add the sugar and stir until fully combined. Pour in the milk and mix thoroughly. Sift in the cake flour and baking powder, then mix until smooth. Finally, add the oil and stir to incorporate.

3. Setp

Lightly grease a cake pan. Pour a small amount of the batter into the pan. Add the sweet potato mixture, spreading it evenly. Pour the remaining batter on top, ensuring all ingredients are layered evenly. Place the cake pan in a steamer. Cover the steamer with a towel before placing the lid to prevent water droplets from dripping onto the cake. Steam for 20 minutes without opening the lid. Once done, remove from heat, let it cool slightly, and enjoy!
