The ingredients for Spicy Sweet Potato Sautee are:

1 lb. uncooked sweet potatoes (NOT peeled, cut into small cubes)
1 tbsp. olive oil
Cayenne Pepper
"Hot Salt" (like "Mortons Hot Salt" or "Spicy Season-all"---I use a homemade mix of "Season-all", paprika, and cayenne)
Salt (if desired)

Here is how you make Spicy Sweet Potato Sautee:

Heat olive oil in sautee pan over medium-high heat, until ssizzling. Add cayenne, and "hot salt" to taste (a fairly good amount). Add potatoes and sautee until they begin to brown and soften. Add more spice and/or salt to taste. Reduce heat, cover, and let sit for about 5 minutes until potatoes are fully cooked. (If you keep the heat high, the sugars in the sweet potato will burn).
