About Sweet potato balls
Sweet potato balls are a delightful snack or dessert commonly found in East and Southeast Asian cuisines, especially Taiwan and Malaysia. Made primarily from mashed sweet potatoes, tapioca flour, and sugar, these bite-sized treats are rolled into balls and fried or baked until golden and slightly crispy on the outside, with a chewy interior. Sweet potatoes, the star ingredient, are rich in fiber, vitamins A and C, and antioxidants, promoting eye health and immune support. Tapioca flour adds a gluten-free touch, making it suitable for individuals with dietary restrictions. While naturally nutrient-dense, sweet potato balls can be high in added sugars or calories depending on preparation, especially when deep-fried. They are often enjoyed as a street food snack, offering a balance of sweetness and texture in a compact, flavorful form. Opting for baking or reducing sugar can make them a healthier treat for any occasion.
