If it's yams then I drizzle them with oil, honey & balsamic vinegar, season with salt & pepper and roast them at 180-200C.

roast with orange juiceand zest, brown sugar and a drizzle of oil. Can also do them in the microwave like this if pushed for time.
I often just throw them in with the other roast veges. No special treatment. They are very dense though and take longer thanyou would think to roast.

I did the same with pumpkin seeds from a small biakng pumpkin (yielded 2 cups pumpkin meat). Rinse the seeds in water and then drain off the water. They don't need to be dried.then spread seeds on parchment paper and baked it in 350 degree F. oven until lighty browned. It smelled so good, too.Then I tried eating them. It was easy enough to crack them open with my front teeth but there was so little inside of the shell to eat, I gave up. I really didn't enjoy eating the hulls and doubt they contributed much toward my dietary requirements. I dumped the whole batch in the recycling container along with the pumpkin skin and stem. I saw the few hulls I did eat a few days later as they had not change shape (hulls did turn from toasted brown to white again) after they were processed through my digestive system. (Sorry for being so indelicate.)If your seeds have a large-enough seed inside, then maybe all the work would be worth the trouble.
