Sweet potato balls

Overview

Very simple sweet potato balls. I remember that during the Spring Festival a few years ago, my mother-in-law would often fry many old-fashioned products. Among them was this simple sweet potato ball. I saw that most of the other versions added glutinous rice flour, but we added flour, and it was just as delicious.
