Sweet potatoes: boiled and mashed, roasted or wedges as per normal potaotes

That recipe does not mention that unless you peel the sweet potatoes they taste of aniseed.

I would roast squash as described in the BBC link above. It makes a lovely autumnal dish before the winter root veggies come into their own. Alternatively add it to soup for a lovely smooth texture.

I make sweet potato hash. Coarsly grate sweet potato,heat some butter or bacon fat in a pan,add the grated potatoes,and some chopped onions or shallots. Cook until coloured. Have with eggs and crispy smoked bacon.
Parboil butternut squash,drizzle with olive oil and roast for 25-35 minutes...until the squash starts to get dark,crispy edges.

Should have said...cut the squash into cubes.
