You'll find this vegetable in any Indian store...usually in refrigeration section.....
Ingredients:
- Kandagadda
- Salt
- Chilli powder
- Turmeric powder
- Dhaniya powder

Peel the outer layer with a sharp knife and cut it into thick slices.
Tip: If you are too lazy, wash it thoroughly, cut it into big pieces, boil them and then peel the skin and cut into slices.
Boil the slices until cooked.
Drain the water and take the boiled pieces into a plate/bowl.
Color the pieces with red chilli powder, turmeric powder, dhaniya powder and salt.
Heat a flat pan and spread oil. Shallow fry the pieces (in medium heat) until they turn golden brown.
Yummy Yam slices are ready to eat.... and it doesn't take much time to empty the plate...healthy and tasty....
Tip: If the slices are overcooked, mash them into paste, add powders and shallow fry them like cutlets :-)
