MASHED CANDIED YAMS



Mashed Candied Yams image

Although I will always fondly remember my moms yams without marshmallows, I really wanted to try the candied version. After much trial and error, and mashing up a few of my favorite recipes, I created these. I've been told by friends and family that don't even like yams that I must make these every thanksgiving.

Time 1h5m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 (40 ounce) cans yams, drained
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1/4-1/2 cup heavy cream
1 (16 ounce) bag marshmallows

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Roast drained yams on a cookie sheet for 20 minutes until they are mostly dry and very lightly browned.
  • Mash yams, butter, salt, nutmeg and cinnamon together until well combined.

GARLIC COCONUT MASHED YAMS (SWEET POTATOES)



Garlic Coconut Mashed Yams (Sweet Potatoes) image

This flavorful vegan side dish is ever-so-slightly adapted from a recipe in The Millennium Cookbook. These yams are truly addictive. They are a beautiful bed for a filet of fish, and a perfect complement to Caribbean-inspired dishes such as jerked meat or tempeh. I've even been known to eat the leftovers cold, straight from the refrigerator! This is a savory sweet potato dish, rather than the traditional sweet ones - It emphasizes the flavors of garlic and thyme.
