SPICY YAM CURRY
The yam in this (suran), is related to the sweet potato. However, that being said, do not look for a marshmallow topped, brown sugar filled concoction. This is definitely all curry, and is a bit spicy as well. Eat as a vegetarian main dish, or as a side dish to other recipes. If you cannot find suran, just substitute sweet potato or white potatoes. I am sure they would work well.

Steps:
- Heat mustard oil or ghee in a large saucepan and add cumin seed.
- Cook 30 seconds or until fragrant, but do not burn.
- Add chopped onion, garlic, and cayenne pepper, cooking for several minutes or until onions begin to soften.
- Stir in diced yam, diced tomatoes, salt, and curry powder.
- Mix tamarind paste with warm water and add to pan.
- Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until yam is tender, adding water if necessary to keep from sticking.
- Stir in thawed peas and cook for 1-2 minutes more, or until peas are tender.
- Serve garnished with chopped cilantro, with freshly steamed basmati rice (optional).
Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh yams. Look for yams that are firm and have smooth skin.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can grate the yams by hand. Just be sure to grate them finely.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the latkes tough.
- Heat the oil over medium-high heat. If the oil is too hot, the latkes will burn. If the oil is too low, the latkes will be greasy.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the latkes. Give them enough space so that they can cook evenly.
- Serve the latkes hot with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include sour cream, applesauce, and chutney.
Conclusion:
Yam latkes are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or side dish. They're perfect for any occasion, from casual gatherings to holiday parties. With their crispy exterior and fluffy interior, these latkes are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them!
