Cek Mek Molek - Beautiful Lady

Sweet little treats which me and my boy loves it a lot :) No leftovers for hubby hahaha....I've actually attempt this fried sweet potatoes twice! First attempt taste not really good as I added too much flour to the mashed sweet potatoes resulting a rather doughy texture after frying. After the not so successful attempt, second try fare much better! ^.^
