Fresh Ginger Yams

Fresh Ginger Yams

Ingredients
 

  • 1 yam (or sweet potato)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chopped ginger
  • 1 tablespoon butter alternative (I like earth balance)
 
 Advertisements
Preparation
 


The measurements above are for one person who will eat one yam.


-cook yam(s) - I use my microwave if it is just
for me. If I am making a lot, I peel each yam, cut into
cubes (about 1.5 inches square, usually 8
pieces per yam), and boil them until tender.


-mince ginger - if you love ginger, the more
the gingeryer.


-when yam(s) is cooked I either:


A: cut it open and scoop out insides into a
bowl and mash them (careful - very hot!)
or


B: (if boiled) strain and mash them


-add ginger and butter substitute, mix well.


No joke, good stuff, and cheap and easy too!
