Steps
- Wash 1 large sweet potato to remove any dirt. No need to dry it completely.
- Wrap the sweet potato completely in aluminum foil. (Key Tip!) Leaving a little moisture on the surface will ensure a moist texture after steaming.
- Bake the sweet potato in a preheated oven at 200°C (392°F) for 1 hour.
- After 1 hour, carefully remove the sweet potato from the oven, flip it over, and bake for another hour. (Key Tip!) Flipping halfway through ensures even heat distribution for uniformly cooked results.
- Prepare 1 cucumber and perform 'board rubbing' (itazuri) to remove any grassy smell. Take some salt in your hands and rub it all over the cucumber, then gently massage.
- Rinse off the salt and pat the cucumber dry.
- Trim the ends off the cucumber and slice thinly using a slicer or a knife. (Key Tip!) If you don't have a slicer, you can stabilize it by cutting it in half lengthwise and then slicing thinly with the heel of your knife.
- Place the thinly sliced cucumber in a bowl, add a pinch of salt and 2 pinches of sugar, then mix and let it sit to draw out excess moisture. (Key Tip!) Thoroughly squeezing out moisture with salt prevents the salad from becoming watery over time.
- Carefully hold the baked sweet potato with kitchen paper or a towel to avoid burns, and cut it into 3 equal pieces for easier peeling.
- Using a knife, hold the skin and pull downwards; the skin should peel off smoothly. (Key Tip!) The skin peeling off easily is a sign that the sweet potato is fully cooked.
- Lay the peeled sweet potato on its side and roughly chop it into about 3cm (1.2 inch) pieces.
- Further cut the chopped sweet potato into bite-sized pieces and place them in a bowl.
- Add 10g of Parmesan cheese to the bowl with the sweet potato.
- Add 3 tbsp of mayonnaise and mix gently without mashing the sweet potato too much, ensuring it's evenly coated.
- Squeeze the salt-cured cucumber firmly with kitchen paper to remove all excess water. (Key Tip!) Squeezing out the water here is crucial to prevent the salad from becoming soggy.
- Add the drained cucumber to the bowl with the sweet potato and mix lightly.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt to enhance the flavors (approximately 2 pinches of salt as a guideline).
- Transfer to a serving dish.
- Finish by generously sprinkling with black pepper. It's ready!
