Instructions:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes and warm water.
• Add the yeast to the mixture and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
• Gradually incorporate the flour and salt into the mixture, stirring until a dough forms.
• Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
• Place the dough back into the mixing bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until it doubles in size.
• Once the dough has risen, divide it into smaller portions and shape them into flat, round discs, about 1-2 centimeters thick.
• Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil.
• Cook the dough discs on the skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
• Serve it warm, either on its own or with garlic butter spread, as is traditionally enjoyed in Madeira.
