Something simple...cook yams crush lightly with fork to break up a bit. Drizzle over a little oilive oil and fresh thyme and roast in a hot oven until golden and crispy. You could also add a little garlic.

If you have real yams you could do okonomiyaki (google for a recipe).

If you have the "NZ Yams" - which are Oxalis tubers - then you can cook, bake, steam the bastards... or do what I do - let the pigs harvest them and the harvest the pigs ...

Try baking them with a little maple syrup drizzled over them, they are really nice done like that.

Hasn't anyone taught you how to filter?

I slice them raw into matchsticks and add to stirfrys and Thai curries particularly red curry.

I slice them and cook them in a little butter and adda few tablespoons of orange juice as they are cooking and freshly ground black pepper just before serving; or do a veggie roast with yams, kumara, potatoes, pumpkin cubed with garlic and onions- drizzled with olive oil and sprinkled with season all salt or moroccan spice and a little garlic salt.
