Mustards Yams Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Cut potatoes into 1-inch-thick slices. Reassemble slices so they look like intact potatoes. Insert a sprig of thyme between each of the slices. Wrap each potato in 2 layers of foil and place on a pie tin, roasting pan or directly on oven rack (seam side up).
• Bake potatoes until very tender, 60 to 75 minutes. Meanwhile, combine sour cream, mustard, thyme and garlic in a small bowl. Serve potatoes dolloped with mustard sauce.

• Mix together the ingredients for the vinaigrette and reserve.
• Put yams on the grill for a minute, then turn them 90 degrees and cook for another minute to burn a cross-hatch pattern into them. Turn over and repeat process.
• Remove to a platter and drizzle vinaigrette over all.

Steps:

• Combine yams and bell pepper in large bowl. Add cornstarch; toss to coat. Puree garbanzo beans in processor to coarse paste. Add egg, curry powder and salt and blend. Transfer mixture to small bowl. Mix in cilantro and mustard seeds. Stir garbanzo mixture into yam mixture.
