What do you do when you see this huge crate of sweet potatoes..?? In our family, we make sweet potatoes tempura !! the kid loves it, the wife thinks it is healthy and me – it’s easy enough to peel them off and cut them up and dump them into the deep fryer or better yet put them in the oven and baked them. We watch tv and munched them down. The kid thinks I’m a hero and the wife thinks I am a good father.
