Baked sweet potatoes

The humble sweet potatoes are a luxury over at this part of the world. With the rising food prices, we only buy certain foods when on sale. The sweet potatoes is one of them. Back home, sweet pototoes are either eaten steamed, barbeque, fried or cooked in a sweet ginger soup. This time I've decided to bake it. Though not crispy, it was very good accompanying the stuffed pork.
