Answers: How on earth do you cut a sweet potato? I was trying to cut wedges to make sweet potato fries and it wouldn't cut at all. It was too hard. I ended up breaking it in pieces and throwing it out...

You just need to have a very sharp knife. Sweet potatoes have a more fibrous composition than a "white" potato, and are therefore harder to cut. I use a cutting board and a sharp butcher's knife to cut mine. If you still have the pieces, rescue them, wash them well, and cook them. That's just the way sweet potatoes are.

That's how you do it. Get a sharper knife.

I cube it and bake it for sweet potato enchiladas.

Just peel it first.

Boil it in water and then cut. Or drop in microwave for 10 minutes.

get a sharper knife no but seriously poke a few holes in it with a fork and put them in the microwave for about five minuites or so then they should cut nice

---

you have to make it soft first then u cut. so maybe cook it in hot water.

You cut the same way as you would if you where doing roast potatoes, put then in the oven with a little olive oil and salt and pepper, cook for about 40 mins on gas mark 5 turning then occasionally.

you pick up the knife and cut it

Have you tried to cut the sweet potato in halves length wised?
I cut them in half then cut in strips or I cut them in slices and put them in grill. They work for me. For best result, do not peel the skin.
