Make sure there is enough room for water level to be higher than potatoes by at least an inch. Over high heat, bring to a rolling boil. When potatoes are easily pierced by fork, drain potatoes and return to pot.ORTo prepare sweet potatoes by baking, preheat oven to 425 F degrees. Wash and dry sweet potatoes. Pierce each sweet potato with a knife 3-4 times. Prepare a baking sheet by lining with foil and spraying with non-stick cooking spray. Place sweet potatoes onto prepared baking sheet and bake for 50-70 minutes, or until sweet potatoes are soft to the touch. Remove from oven and let cool slightly, then gently remove skins from baked sweet potatoes and place cooked sweet potatoes in a large bowl. Discard skins.
