Fried yam is a deep-fried yam recipe that can be eaten with a wide range of Nigerian stews and sauces. It is fried in such a way that the outside of the chips is crunchy while the inside is moist. Fried yam is a popular street snack in Nigeria, it is commonly served with fried plantain and fried sauce.
Fried Yam is one of the most favored of recent trending foods in the world. It’s simple, it is quick, it tastes yummy. It’s appreciated by millions every day. They’re fine and they look wonderful. Fried Yam is something that I’ve loved my whole life.
To get started with this particular recipe, we have to first prepare a few ingredients. You can cook fried yam using 6 ingredients and 3 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.

For the perfect fried yam, do not use the head of the yam because it is too fibrous and sometimes bitter. Do not use the tail either because it does not contain enough starch and it's kind of tasteless. Reserve those ends for the Beans Porridge and Yam recipe. Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
Steps to make Fried Yam:
- Dice yam into desired sizes but not chunky. Rinse and season with the stock seasoning, salt, thyme and a little water as shown in the pix.
- Deep fry the yam, put a little of the water you seasoned the yam with and cover the frying pan so the water can absorb in the yam. After it has been absorbed, the yam starts to fry properly. Fry till golden brown
- Serve with any sauce of your choice.
This is my answer to the oh-so-yummy but very fattening deep-fried yam fries. Just wash your yams well & cut them into pieces of your desired size, I like them a bit thicker. The thin cornstarch bath is the secret to crispy, golden brown deep-fried sweet potato fries. If you've had trouble getting sweet potato fries to crisp up, you should try this method. Large fries will take too long to bake, while thinner fries will bake up greasy and limp.
