I have mostly had sweet potatoes or yams around Thanksgiving candied - a layer of brown sugar or marshmallows on top. I wanted to do something that wasn't so cloying and, usually, overcooked. This is a great yam recipe as an alternative to the usual Thanksgiving sugary side dish. The crisped bacon adds a nice additional texture as well as the flavor. The apple and the potatoes have all the sweetness the dish needs and the onion keeps it savory. An excellent recipe that will stay on our home menu and keep yams in our diet all year long.

I just made this fantastic recipe for the second time this morning. The only thing I do differently is to cook the sweet potatoes in the microwave until they are almost done, and I also add a pinch of cayenne pepper, and a shake of pumpkin pie spice. It is a great recipe. This morning instead of bacon, I used some pulled pork that we left over, and I used gala apples (as that was all I had and I also topped it with a sunny side up egg that was still runny. Ummmmm you really should try this. The purple Okinawan or Molokai sweet potatoes would be perfect here, if you're lucky enough to find them. Enjoy! Chef Anne is wonderful.
