Tips:

  • To make the yam and apple medley more flavorful, use a variety of apples. Granny Smith apples are a good choice because they hold their shape well and have a tart flavor that pairs well with the sweet yams.
  • If you don't have any fresh ginger, you can use ground ginger instead. Just be sure to use half the amount, as ground ginger is more concentrated.
  • If you're short on time, you can skip the step of sautéing the yams and apples. However, sautéing them will give them a slightly caramelized flavor that is delicious.
  • The yam and apple medley can be served as a side dish or a main course. If you're serving it as a main course, be sure to add some protein, such as grilled chicken or tofu.

Conclusion:

Yam and apple medley is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a new side dish or main course, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
