Heat oil in the inner pot and, using extreme caution, sauté onion,

Steamed Sweet Potatoes
1 lb.
sweet potatoes
Peel and cut potatoes into 1-inch cubes and place in a single
layer in the steam tray. Add 2 cups water to the inner pot and place in
the rice cooker. Place steam tray into the inner pot, close lid, and press
Steam/Cook button. Steam until potatoes are tender, about 17 minutes
after water boils. Test potatoes: carefully open the lid, keeping hands
and face away to avoid steam burns. Using a fork, test potatoes for
doneness. Take care not to touch sides of steam tray or inner pot, as
they will be hot. If potatoes are not done, close lid and steam for an
additional few minutes. Use oven mitts to remove steam tray from rice
cooker and serve potatoes immediately with butter
