Spicy Peanut Yam Casserole

1. 1

   Cook the yams.

2. 2

   Either bake them in a preheated 400 F oven about 45-55 minutes or microwave them about 15 minutes.

3. 3

   In a medium skillet, saute the onion, the bell pepper, and the hot peppers in the peanut oil over moderate heat, stirring, until the onion wilts and begins to turn golden.

4. 4

   Add the tomatoes, the salt, and the curry powder.

5. 5

   Mix well, and cook uncovered over low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 15-20 minutes, until the mixture is thick and most of the liquid has cooked away.

6. 6

   Mash the cooked yams in a bowl.

7. 7

   Add the tomato mixture and the chopped peanuts and mix well.

8. 8

   Spoon the yams into a lightly oiled shallow casserole.

9. 9

   Cover lightly and bake in a preheated 375 F oven for 20-25 minutes, just enough to heat through.

    Tip: To speed it up, you could use canned yams, a can of Rotel in place of the onions, peppers, and tomatoes, and mix in some peanut butter.

    It's not my preference, but it works if you are in a hurry.
