How to make
Imo-mochi is usually made with potatoes, but you can enjoy a different taste by using sweet potatoes!
According to the contributor, if you feel that the sweet potatoes aren't moist enough after heating them in the microwave, just add about a tablespoon of milk.
You can also heat the sweet potatoes thoroughly in a frying pan over medium-low heat to eliminate the powdery mouthfeel you can sometimes get with sweet potatoes.
If you have sweet potatoes, you can easily make this dish with ingredients you have at home, so why not give it a try?
