– In a saucepan, cover the sweet potato with water and bring it to a boil. Cook it for 15 to 20 minutes or until tender and soft in the center. To check, poke the center of the sweet potato with a fork to make sure it is fully cooked.
– Once the sweet potato is cooked, drain and let it cool down for a few minutes or until it's easy to handle. Peel and mash the sweet potato in a bowl with all-purpose flour. Combine and knead the mixture until a smooth dough forms.
– Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces and round them into balls. Dust the working surface with flour and roll it out with a rolling pin (each should be about 2 mm thick).
– Place a piece of tortilla on a non-stick pan over medium heat. Cook each side for about 1 minute or until golden brown. Transfer to a plate. Repeat the same process until all the tortillas are cooked.
