Sweet Potato Croquettes

Khoai lang kén is a sweet potato dish made by mashing sweet potatoes and mixing them with tapioca starch, sometimes with a mung bean or cheese filling, then shaping the mixture into small pieces and deep-frying them until the outside is crispy while the inside stays soft and chewy. This dish has the naturally sweet and rich flavor of sweet potato, fragrant and buttery, not spicy at all, and is often dipped in condensed milk or mayonnaise sauce. This is a snack that is usually eaten hot right after frying, so you can feel the crispy outside and chewy inside.
