How to enjoy
Toss chunks with a splash of light soy and a drizzle of sesame oil. Roast 20–30 minutes until edges caramelise; finish with sliced spring onion.

Roast slices and serve over buckwheat soba with a quick sauce of Kikkoman soy and a touch of sesame oil. Add blanched greens if you like.
Quick‑stir‑fry par‑steamed batons with green bell peppers and a spoon of satay sauce for 3–4 minutes until glossy and tender‑crisp.
Prep Tips
- Scrub well; peel is optional and becomes pleasantly chewy when roasted.
- For even cooking, cut uniform pieces; steam or microwave briefly before stir‑frying to speed things up.
- Roast on a preheated tray for extra caramelisation; avoid overcrowding.
- A splash of rice vinegar brightens sweetness and helps maintain color.
