Crispy Roasted Yams
Ingredients
  • 1 large yam, peeled and cut into 1/4 inch thick slices
  • kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
1
Begin by preheating your oven to a medium-high temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit (or 175 degrees Celsius, if you prefer metric). Next, take some aluminum foil and line a baking sheet or shallow dish to prevent food from sticking.
2
Arrange the yam slices in the prepared pan, overlapping them slightly as you go. This will help create a visually appealing presentation and ensure that each slice gets coated with the seasonings evenly. Sprinkle some salt and pepper over the yams to bring out their natural flavors.
3
Now, drizzle a moderate amount of olive oil over the yam slices as evenly as possible. This will help them cook more uniformly and prevent any one area from becoming too dry.
4
Finally, place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and let it cook for about 30 minutes, or until the yams are tender and have started to wrinkle around the edges.
