Chinese food recipe >> Sweet Dishes >> Sweet Potatoes in Syrup
INGREDIENTS
1 lb (500 g) sweet potatoes
5/8 cup or 10 1/2 tbsp (150 g) sugar
2 tbsp cornstarch (corn flour), dissolved in 2 tbsp water
2 cups (500 ml) vegetable oil for deep-frying; use about 3 1/2 oz (100 ml)
2 tbsp (50 g) honey
2 oz (50 g) haw jelly, diced
RECIPE
 
  1. Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut into 2 1/2 by 3/4 inch by 3/4 inch (6 cm by 2 cm by 2 cm) strips.
  2. Heat the oil in a wok to 350oF(175oC), or until a 1-inch (25 mm) cube of day-old bread browns in 1 minute when dropped into the oil. Add the sweet potatoes, and deep-fry until brown.
  3. Pour out the oil and add 9 oz (250 ml) of water to the wok. Add the sugar and cook, stirring, until it dissolves. Then add the honey and cornstarch. Cook, stirring, until thickened. Add the sweet potatoes and stir so each piece is coated with the syrup. Place on a plate, sprinkle with the haw jelly, and serve.
