The other day, I had some yam at home. I was wondering what to do with it. Yam by the way is a very versatile vegetable. There are many recipes that can be made with yam. But I know only a few of them. Some kind of yam is also called sweet potatoes. But those are not the one I am talking about. The variety of yam I am referring to, is called the Elephant foot yam.

I decided to make a snack out of it. Here is what I made with it.

I decided to make a snack out of it. Here is what I made with it.
What we need
- Yam - 250 gram
- Chilli powder - one to one and half tea spoons
- Coriander powder - half a tea spoon
- Turmeric powder - half a tea spoon
- Fennel Powder - one tea spoon
- Oil - 3 to 5 table spoons
- Salt - to taste
Method
- Cut yam into pieces of medium thickness
- Cook it in a pan, in a way that it is not mashed. It should be hard enough for you to pick it up and hold it.
- Before switching off the burner, add a little salt to it.
- In another bowl, add all the above mentioned powder with a little water and salt.
- Now transfer the yam into this bowl and mix well. Allow it to marinate for about 15 to 20 minutes.
- In a pan fry the yam with a little oil like we do while frying fish. Yam should be fried carefully so that it does not break during the process
- Yam fry is ready
