Ingredients - Serves 2

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes to remove any dirt.
Poke several holes in each sweet potato with a fork.
Place the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until they are soft and cooked through.
Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly.
Peel off the skin of the sweet potatoes and cut them into thick slices.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the sweet potato slices to the skillet and sprinkle with brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
Cook the sweet potato slices for 5-7 minutes, flipping them occasionally, until they are caramelized and golden brown.
Serve the Yaki Imo hot as a delicious appetizer or snack.
