Green sauce and Yams

Grilled Yams with Spicy Cilantro Sauce

by Jenn

For yams/sweet potatoes:

6 sweet potatoes/yams, skins left on, cut into wedges

olive/grapeseed oil

1. Heat grill on medium. Meanwhile, get a pot of salted water boiling. Add your yam wedges for about 6 minutes. This will help it cook through on the grill. Strain, let sit aside for a minute so the water steams off and they are relatively dry.

2. Put on a cookie tray and brush with the oil on all sides.

For dressing:

1 lime, juice and zest

3/4 tsp chili powder

1 tsp ground cumin

1 tsp brown sugar

pinch salt and pepper

few splashes of olive oil

1 bunch cilantro, finely chopped

1. Put juice and zest of 1 lime in a pyrex glass. Add chili through pepper. Whisk in olive oil. Add chopped cilantro.

Drizzle dressing on yam wedges before serving.
