Serves: 6
INGREDIENTS:
  • 2 large yams, cut into thick strips (makes around 6 cups)
  • 2 tablespoons cold-pressed olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons cornmeal (or corn flour)
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • Spicy lime dip
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1½ tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 2 teaspoons hot sauce (adjust according to taste and level of heat in your hot sauce)
DIRECTIONS:
  1. Preheat oven to 400°. Toss the yams with the olive oil on a parchment paper lined baking sheet until evenly coated then toss them in the cornmeal and salt. Place them in the oven and bake for 40 minutes, tossing halfway through so they crisp up evenly, and keep an eye on them near the end, if the ends of the yam strips are too thin they can burn easily. Meanwhile blend together the yogurt with the lime juice and hot sauce and refrigerate until serving time.
