Indian Yam Stir Fry

here is one recipe I have tried out a long time ago and I would use either 1 bag of frozen yam that I wouldn’t open just yet until i got ready to use it or I would buy 1 Ghana yam from a store that sells African groceries and this will work too as well. This you will need to peel using a big knife to eemove the peel and then slice it in rounds until the whole yam is cut up. For this you will need 1 small yam,

Soak the sliced yam in cold water until you are ready for them like you would a potato. On high heat be sure to heat up the pot and add 1 oz of either corn or canola oil, 1 tbs of either coconut oil or mustard oil. Add 1 pinch each of urad ki dal, chana ki dal, moong ki dal and toor dal. wash off and rince then shake dry and add to the pot and roast until slightly brown and remove to mortar and pestle to grind. Add 1 kashmiri chili and 1 pinch of coriander seeds and black peppercorns and grind this too and mix it in a powder.

Add 3 curry leaves, 1 pinch each of hing mustard seeds, cumin seeds, fenugreek seeds and fennel seeds and let splutter. Add 1 pinch each of turmeric powder, chili powder, paprika, turbidano sugar, pink salt, the contents of the mortar and pestle, Add either 1 oonion or shallot, 3 cloves of garlic washed and peeled then minced, cook the onions until brown then add garlic, add 1 pinch each of tamarind and either frozen unsweetened coconut or descicated coconut, Add 1 green chili choped and then either open the package of frozen yam from an Indian grocery store or 1 Ghana yam that is soaking in cold water to prevent discoloration which has to be drained. Drain this and add either or to the pot and turn down the heat to low and cover and cook for 20 minutes, repeat until soft. This is great to eat with a kebab of choice or even tandoori fish or tandoori chicken.
