    I will definitely try the peel method. I’ll also try this recipe. I’m meh on sweet potatoes generally, but somewhere I have a recipe like this where the pecans are praline. Maybe you add the base of the praline sauce over the pecans near the end to avoid burning. I used to cook my casserole every thanksgiving and eat the sweet potato casserole leftovers like dessert.

    My sweet potatoes are really small. I’m doing a half recipe. My potatoes weigh about 1 3/4 lbs but there is 6 of them, so they are small like fist size or a little smaller. Because of their size, do I change the cooking time, especially the initial cook to peel. I would think that would make these tiny ones mush.

    Love the idea for peeling the sweet potatoes, they are so hard peeling raw. I love sweet potatoes and am not waiting for a holiday to make this, I will however wait for the price of potatoes to go down. I don't have the Foodi but do have the Instant Pot and Air Fryer. I'll use the IP to cook the potatoes but finish with the topping in the regular oven, afraid the topping might blow up into the fan of the AF.

    The tip on pressure cooking the sweet potatoes for 2 minutes is really helpful! I have a dicer that they don't recommend using sweet potatoes on, but I suspect it would work great after preparing the potatoes this way. Thanks for the tip.

    Get outta town! I can't believe the Mix and Mash thingy works so well! I use an electric one from Braun and it is fantastic, but the one you have is simple and apparently does the trick perfectly – and the cleanup would be so easy! Oh, I am diggin' the Ninja blender…that's my next buy when my current Moulinex meets its "Maker". haha (Yes, I am binge watching your videos…I see one in the side menu for a Turtle Cheesecake. NOW, I finally see how this Foodi could change my cheesecake makin' skills!)

    I made this sweet potato casserole for Thanksgiving and my family loved it! I was a little unsure about the balsamic and pepper flakes, but it was a hit. I made the casserole the day before, then added the topping and baked it the next day. It came out perfect. I also used your recipe to brine and cook a turkey breast, and it was juicy and delicious. My husband is loving all of the meals I've been making in the Ninja Foodi, and I give you and your recipes all the credit. Thank you!

    Because I halved the recipe,I needed to remove ALL the liquid and add it back as I mashed. One cup of liquid is needed to come to pressure and that would be too much for half the recipe. Might have added to much anyway as the topping did not crisp up.

    I recently got the 8 qt Ninja Foodi and I began watching your YouTube videos. So far I've made your pot roast recipes in the Foodi. The pot roast was great, my son-in-law said I did a "Throw Down" which I understand meant that it was better than his πŸ˜‰. I enjoy your videos very much, you really explain things very well and your hubby does a great job in the video editing, very professional. I want to try some Mexican recipes on the Foodi and will share them with you. Have a Blessed Thanksgiving!

    Can you tell me the ratios of basmati rice to water, i have tried to cook this a couple of times and turned it into slop, keep getting an add water error. I have tried to convert cups to ml and gms and must be getting it wrong. I used 185g rice + 300mls water, i have an 8qrt ninja. Love watching you cook but i am a bit scared to try your recipes untill i get a bit more experience. After all i can't even cook rice properly ha ha tee hee. Keep up the good work.

    I make kind of a sweet potato souffle. However, I am going to it in the Foodi this year. i like how you prepared the sweet potatoes to be sweet and savory so I will incorporate that into my recipe. Great video.
