This Christmas my contribution to the dinner was yams. As I usually did roasted vegetables or a dessert of some sort it was a food adventure to try something new. I started with a bag full of yams and washed & peeled them. I chopped them into larger pieces and placed them in a pot of salted water. I cooked them until soft and then drained the water. I returned them to the same pot and added butter, cream, pepper, nutmeg and cinnamon. I mashed them until they were soft and creamy and then transferred them to a casserole dish and topped with large marshmallows cut in half. They went this way to the in-laws house where we gently broiled them just before serving. Two thumbs up for this yummy vegetable!
