Yams With Lemon Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F
• Place the yams in a covered baking dish with just enough water to coat the bottom of the pan.
• Bake for 45-50 minutes or until tender.
• Sprinkle the lemon juice and parsley over yams. Salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve.

Steps:

• Stir salt into 2 quarts cold water in a large pot. Transfer sweet potato pieces to pot and place over high heat; bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until potatoes are not quite tender but still cooked, 5 to 7 minutes. Use the tip of a knife to test for doneness. Drain.
• Place brown sugar, butter, lemon juice, maple syrup, ginger, cinnamon, cayenne, and pinch of salt in a skillet. Place over medium-high heat, stirring until glaze ingredients melt and start bubbling. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until mixture begins to thicken up, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Transfer drained sweet potatoes to skillet. Raise heat to high and cook and stir until potatoes are coated with glaze and very tender, and glaze has thickened, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to serving dish; garnish with chopped nuts.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place sweet potatoes in a medium baking dish. Distribute butter pieces evenly over the sweet potatoes. Sprinkle with brown sugar. Layer with miniature marshmallows.
• Bake in the preheated oven 25 minutes, or until sweet potatoes are tender and marshmallows have melted.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• Peel and halve the yams crosswise. Cut each half lengthwise into 4 wedges.
• Place the yams in a baking dish that will hold them in a snug single layer.
• Tuck the orange zest and cinnamon sticks among the yams.
• In a bowl, whisk together the orange juice, maple syrup, oil, lemon juice, ginger, and salt. (Note: if you're using butter, omit it in this step, but dot the assembled casserole with small pieces of it before it goes into the oven.) Pour the mixture over the yams.
• Bake for 1 1/4 hours, basting every 15 minutes, until the yams are tender and glazed and the pan juices are syrupy.
• Remove the orange zest and cinnamon sticks before serving.

Steps:

• Combine sugar, butter, orange juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in small sauce pan and heat gently to boiling, stirring frequently.
• Set aside to cool slightly.
• Arrange sliced yams and lemon slices in large baking dish as one layer, or slightly overlapping.
• Pour syrup mixture over yams.
• Bake at 325:F. for 2 to 2-1/2 hours, basting thoroughly every 15-20 minutes with syrup from baking pan.
• Turn yams occasionally.
• When done, yams should be tender when pierced with point of sharp knife and syrup has been almost completely absorbed and thickened.
• This dish may be prepared early in the day, covered lightly and reheated in oven or microwave.

Steps:

• Stir coriander seeds in small skillet over medium-high heat until darkened in color and fragrant, about 4 minutes. Cool seeds; grind in spice mill or enclose in plastic bag and crush finely with mallet. Place seeds in small bowl. Mix in butter, sugar, orange peel, and lemon peel. Season butter with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 week ahead. Cover and chill.)
• Position rack in bottom third of oven and preheat to 375°F. Spray heavy large rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray. Toss yams and olive oil in large bowl to coat. Spread yams in single layer on prepared sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until tender and golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate on sheet.)
• Drop butter onto yams in small dollops. Roast until heated through, glazed, and browned, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes (or 25 minutes if refrigerated). Season with salt and pepper. Mound in bowl; sprinkle with parsley.
