THANKSGIVING YAMS RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• Cook yams in boiling water about 15 min. (check every 5 min as so to not overcook) Drain and Cool. In a small saucepan, melt butter, juice, brown sugar, salt, water, and cinnamon. While that is heating up, peel the potatoes and slice into chucks. Place potatoes in baking dish. Pour melted mixture over potatoes (it will only cover 1lb of yams. Double recipe if more than 1lb) Bake at 350 for 35 min. After 20 min add pecans and at the end, turn on the broiler and add the marshmallows. Broil for 5 min until marshmallows turn brown.

YAMS, THANKSGIVING

Steps:

• Scrub but don't peel the yams. Cut a slit in the top of each yam with a knife. Heat the oven at 375 degrees F (there is no need to preheat), and place the yams directly on the center rack. Cover the rack below with aluminum foil to catch the yam's syrup, which will drip during baking. Let the yams bake about 1 1/2 hours or until they are soft. A knife or fork should go into them easily. Cool slightly, peel and cube. Reserve. Meanwhile, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add butter or oil. Add onions, and begin cooking. Add ginger and garlic. Cook onions until they are a nice golden color. Rough mash and remove to a bowl. Add butter to skillet and diced apples. Sauté until tender. Add a bit of Calavados and let reduce. Rough mash apples and add to onions. Return yams to skillet. Add coconut milk and begin to reduce. (you want the coconut milk to be almost dry by the end.) Add apple and onion mixture during this process. Heat through and mash all together. Season yams with salt, pepper, a hint of nutmeg, butter and sweeten with a bit of maple syrup. Reheat if necessary and serve.

TROPICAL YAMS - HEALTHY THANKSGIVING DISH

Steps:

• 1. Peel and cube the yams. Place in a 9X12 pre-oiled baking dish. Spray or drizzle oil (I use butter) on them. Cook at 350 for 30 minutes or until done. Mash the yams, add the coconut milk, agave nectar, pineapple, pecans, and seasonings. Mix well, put back in the baking pan, sprinkle with the reserved pineapple and pecans and serve.
• 2. You can make this dish the day before and then reheat it in the oven or microwave right before serving. I like sprinkling the pecans on the top right before putting it on the table.
