Jamaican Yam for Two

Jamaican yam with it's red skin and pale yellow flesh is kind of a cross between a starchy white potato and a sweet potato. If you're cooking for someone who doesn't like sweet potatoes, you might give these a try.

Ingredients:

1 medium Jamaican yam
olive oil
garlic powder
oregano
black pepper

Brush the yam clean then cut in half lengthwise. Score the flesh at 1/2" intervals making a crisscross pattern. Brush with olive oil gently opening the cuts to let some oil seep inside. Sprinkle with seasonings then place cut side down on a parchment lined baking sheet. Brush the skin with oil and add more seasoning. Roast at 400°F for 35 minutes flipping halfway through the cooking time. It should be fork-tender when cooked.
