Preparation

Roast the Poblano
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the poblano pepper directly on the oven rack and roast for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skin is charred and blistered. Remove from the oven and let it cool. Once cool, peel off the skin and remove the seeds.

Cook the Sweet Potatoes
While the poblano is roasting, peel and chop the Japanese sweet potatoes into chunks. Place them in a pot of boiling water and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until tender. Drain and let them cool slightly.
