  • Scrub the sweet potatoes well before cooking: This will help remove any dirt or debris.
  • Use a sharp knife to pierce the sweet potatoes: This will help the steam escape and prevent the potatoes from bursting.
  • Cook the sweet potatoes on high pressure for 10-12 minutes: This will result in perfectly cooked sweet potatoes that are tender and fluffy.
  • Quick release the pressure: This will help stop the cooking process and prevent the sweet potatoes from overcooking.
  • Mash the sweet potatoes with a fork or potato masher: You can also add butter, milk, or spices to taste.
