Fruit-Glazed Yam Sticks

Ingredients

Yam 300g, peeled and cut into 3-inch sticks
Orange or apple juice 60ml
Sugar or honey 1 tablespoon
Colorful sprinkles for garnish

Instructions

1

Prep the yam

Peel the yam and cut into uniform sticks about 3 inches long. Rinse to remove any starch.

2

Cook the yam

Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil. Add the yam sticks and cook for about 5 minutes until they feel tender when pierced with a fork but still hold their shape. Drain well.

3

Make the glaze

While the yam cooks, mix the fruit juice with sugar or honey in a small bowl until the sweetener dissolves.

4

Assemble and serve

Arrange the drained yam sticks on a serving plate. Drizzle the fruit glaze evenly over the top. Finish with a generous sprinkle of colorful sprinkles for a fun, eye-catching presentation.
