* If cooking a roast in the oven, roast an extra half sweet potato and a carrot and use them for the dip. omit step 1 of recipe
*you can cook sweet potato and carrot straight in mixing bowl too with 150 ml water. 12 mns/100C/sp 1.5. Drain excess water
* Add other spices like curry, chilli/cayenne, turmeric or coriander to your liking. In any case, always add plenty of (natural) seasoning and lemon juice to your dip to bring out all the flavours

I found this recipe quite confusing as I don't understand how the sweet potato can cook without water in the bowl. If there is water, how much?
Hi, I'm new to Thermie, do I need to add water to the jug when simmering the sweet potato and carrot?
thanks
John
This is so easy and delicious, I always roast the sweet potato first, takes literally seconds to whiz all together, and so much better than the bought stuff.
