This recipe is tasty and may be served with chicken, pork or turkey. A holiday favorite.
Ingredients
2 pounds of yams
1 stick of butter
1/4 cup of brown sugar
salt
pepper
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. cloves
pinch of nutmeg
1/2 cup of fresh pineapple, chopped
1/2 cup toasted pecans or walnuts
1/4 cup heavy cream
Directions
Boil yams in salted water, or bake until tender, leaving skins on. Remove skins when slightly cooled then return to the warm pot. Mash using softened butter, and warmed, heavy cream. Add brown sugar, salt, pepper, and spices. Toast nuts. Stir in half of the nuts and pineapple, using the rest to garnish the top of the casserole. May be served immediately, or reheated in a buttered dish at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. If you are watching your weight, the juice of the pineapple, lemon,or mandarin oranges, may be substituted for cream. Garnish with lemon or orange zest, instead of using the nut mixture.
