Start pealing and chopping (if not using frozen bag) your sweet potatoes and placing them in the pan with the a TINY splash of water, once added turn on medium heat and cover the pan with a lid and let simmer until soft, 20-30 minutes depending on how small you chopped the sweet potatoes. (they should be mash-able with a fork or spoon like mashed potatoes)
