    Recipe Introduction


    Posted by: zaiahsgramma

    List of Ingredients




    6 medium sized yams
    1/3 C dark Karo syrup
    1/2 C brown sugar, firmly packed
    1/4 C water
    1/4 pound butter

    Recipe



    Cook the unpeeled yams in boiling water for about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and cool until you can peel them. Cut in half lengthwise. Melt butter, sugar, karo syrup and water together in a large skillet. Lay yams cut side down in this syrup and cook on low heat, turning occasionally and basting occasionally so yams candy on both sides. Keep heat low so they do not scorch. Cook slowly until yams are tender and syrup flavor has permeated the yams. Takes about 30-45 minutes depending on how much you precooked your yams.
