I bought some Yams at the grocery store this evening. What do you guys think is the best way to cook them? Boil them, cook in oven like potato? Karma for the best recipe =)
1 small white onion
1 tsp olive oil
1 1/2 lbs yams
1/4 tsp salt
fresh ground black pepper
1 Tbsp fresh rosemary (or 1 tsp. dried)
2 tsp olive oil
Place a large skillet in the oven and preheat the oven to 375°F.
When the oven is hot add the teaspoon of olive oil to the pan with the onions. Stir well and return the pan to the oven. Stir the onions about every 5 minutes.
After 10 minutes add the yams and stir well. Increase the temperature of the oven to 375°F. Stir the yams every 5 - 7 minutes. It will take about 40 minutes for them cook. They are done when the yams are tender but not mushy.
About 10 minutes before the yams are done (when they have begun to soften) add the rosemary.
Remove from the oven and place in a large bowl. Stir in the 2 teaspoons olive oil and serve (or chill) they state great cold as well.
