  • Vegetables
  • Confectionery

Ingredients (10 pieces)

Mishima sweet potato 300g
Unsalted butter (at room temperature) 30g
Granulated sugar 20g
salt a little
Fresh cream (35% milk fat) 20g
commercially available pudding 1 individual
Commercially available candied chestnuts 10 individual
Egg yolk (mix with a few drops of soy sauce)
black sesame seeds a little

Method

Wrap the skinned Mishima sweet potato in kitchen paper, soak it with water, and heat it in a 500W microwave for 2 minutes. Then warm it up in thawing mode (170W) for about 25 to 30 minutes.

When it's soft enough to pierce with a bamboo skewer, peel it while it's still hot, put it in a plastic bag, and mash it with your fingers.

Put the butter and ❷ in a bowl, stir, then add granulated sugar, salt, and fresh cream, stir again, and puree until smooth.

Add the pudding to ❸, mix well, then put into a piping bag (star opening).

Place chestnuts in the bottom of an aluminum madeleine mold (about 5cm in diameter) (one chestnut per mold) and squeeze out ❹.

Brush the surface with egg yolk for gloss and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Bake in the oven at 170°C for 13 to 15 minutes and it's ready!

Key Points

Point ❶
If you heat it slowly at a low temperature, the sweetness of the sweet potato will come out.

 

Point ❸
It is OK to leave the texture of the potato without pureing it.
