Step 1

Wash and peel the sweet potatoes and carefully cut them into slices (discard the ends and outer skin).

Step 2

Using a skillet on medium heat, proceed to melt the butter and stir in the spices and coconut sugar

Step 3

Carefully add in the potatoes with pink salt and vanilla extract to the sugar mixture

Step 4

Pour in the water to create a watery syrup then fold and stir with the sweet potatoes (don't worry this will thicken up)

Step 5

Reduce the heat to low, cover with lid and allow to cook on low heat for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Continue to baste the yams with the syrup occasionally. Add a splash more water to loosen up the syrup if it's becomes too thick for your liking. The yams should be tender and soft to the touch - can prick with a fork. The butter and coconut sugar should have congealed into a syrup texture.

Step 6

Serve piping hot and enjoy!
