Simple answer is yes.

There are many post on this subject, you can do a search, right top page search.

The best method is to boils the sweet potato, many verities in different part of the world.

Wait for it to cool, peal the first thin layer of the skin, keep it in the fridge, you can eat it cool.

If you fry then you are adding oil.!! you can make a mash, again good.

Give it a try.
