The sweet potato porridge dish is one of my favorite categories of porridge. For some reason I really like sweet potatoes with any color variant of them, because in my opinion, sweet potatoes are very tempting and always spoil my tongue. No wonder sweet potatoes always appear in every choice of my daily menu, you know they always steal my attention when I shop at the market, as a result they enter my shopping cart, lol.

Porridge always tells a different story in every bowl of my presentation. Making this breakfast porridge has to be dramatic, planning to make my morning one portion, but because after making this dish, I shared it with my friend, because he said it was very tempting, and he was very hungry, so I only got half of the bowl. But seeing him devour half of my share quickly, one could say, that he wanted it and I believe to be more precise. Leaving the story of my friend who ate half of my bowl of porridge let's start to prepare this dish.
