candied yams
Grilled Yams:
- 1 large yam, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch thick slices
- olive oil-flavored cooking spray
- salt to taste
- 1 tablespoon butter
1 - Preheat a grill for high heat. When the grill is hot, lightly oil the grate. Coat the strips of yam with olive oil cooking spray and season with salt.
2 - Arrange the yam strips on the grate crosswise so they don't fall through. Cook for 10 to 12 minutes per side, until tender and glazed. Serve with butter.
yams on a stick, and roast it in yam juice
Just bake it like a baked white potato and it's a baked yam! Or peel and slice it, then deep fat fry it for Yam French Fries. Or candied yams or yam casserole with a brown sugar, cinnamon and pecan topping.
