Roasted with garlic and thyme
Roast it or bake it. Mash it with swede and carrots and perhaps parsnips too - that's lovely. Another good recipe is one I've adapted from Sainsbury's - roast butternut squash, sweet potatoes with panchetta, fresh sage and chestnuts - sometimes I also add cherry tomatoes on the vine to roast - now that is a very nice tasty meal.
grate the sweet pot, and grate an onion and some cheese, mix together well and fry it in a frying pan like a rossti. it is lovely.
sweet potatoes make lovely chips
Boil, Bake, Roast, Wedge's, Fries. Add to casseroles and stews.
Almost anyway you cook a spud will do, except it will be considerably sweeter.
I know you said you didn't want mash but if you haven't, do try sweet potato and coriander mash - it's lovely and adds another dimension rather than plain sweet potato!
Otherwise try roasting it with Butternut Squash, red peppers and red onions, then either leave these chunky to have as veg with something, or blend them all together to create really lovely potato cakes which can then be either grilled or dry-fried if you want to stay healthy!

I love sweet potatoes! I bake them in the oven and then eat them just as I would a regular baked potato, sour cream, butter, chives, bacon bits, salt and pepper. I make an entire meal out of the sweet potato. Enjoy!

Grate the sweet potato like you would cheese.
