When the unique and well-known whistle of carts with built-in ovens announces the arrival of candied sweet potatoes, it is time to look out the window to check if the camotero is near! One of Mexico City’s most beloved street food desserts, camotes enmielados are steam-cooked sweet potatoes garnished with a touch of condensed milk. Prepare these traditional camotes spooned over with a drool-worthy and sweet piloncillo syrup made with piloncillo, star anise pods, and orange juice. They’re outrageously good!
