Simple Purple Sweet Potato Dish Ideas 

Here are some simple purple sweet potato creations you can try at home:

1. Steamed Purple Sweet Potato Cake

If you’re bored with chocolate or pandan cakes, why not try making a steamed cake from purple sweet potato? It’s super easy, just mash the steamed purple sweet potato, then mix it with flour, eggs, sugar, and a little oil. The result? A cake with a naturally beautiful purple hue, no artificial coloring needed. It’s not only delicious but also soft and fluffy, perfect as an afternoon snack.

2. Purple Sweet Potato Donuts

Classic donuts are usually made with just wheat flour. To make them more special, add mashed purple sweet potato into the dough. The taste becomes richer, the texture softer, and the natural purple color makes them extra attractive. Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with glaze, and these donuts are sure to be a family favorite.

3. Purple Sweet Potato Compote (Kolak)

Who can resist a warm or chilled bowl of kolak, especially during Ramadan? Purple sweet potato works wonderfully in kolak alongside bananas or pumpkin. Its sweet, rich taste pairs perfectly with creamy coconut milk. For a healthier twist, you can replace coconut milk with FiberCreme. It still gives that creamy, rich texture, but with less fat, high fiber, and zero cholesterol. So you can enjoy more without the guilt.

4. Purple Sweet Potato Pudding

If you’re craving a light dessert, purple sweet potato pudding is a great choice. Simply combine mashed purple sweet potato with agar powder and a little milk or creamer. Once chilled, you’ll get a smooth, soft pudding with a naturally vibrant purple color. It’s a refreshing dessert after dinner or a cool snack on a hot day.

5. Crispy Fried Purple Sweet Potato

For those who love crunchy snacks, try cutting purple sweet potato into small pieces, dipping them in batter, and frying until golden brown. The outside turns crispy while the inside stays soft and sweet. This is one of the simplest purple sweet potato dishes you can whip up anytime with minimal ingredients.
