Adding a fresh, zesty dressing to this salad which has a wonderfully fresh addition of tender yams. Serves 4 Prep time 10 min Cooking time 12 min Skill easy Ingredients 500g yams 2 limes, zest and juice 1 tsp sugar ½ tsp salt 1 small red onion, sliced into thin rounds 50g fresh coriander, roughly chopped 1 red chilli, deseeded and finely sliced 2 Tbsp olive oil Cracked black pepper Method Bring a large saucepan of lightly salted water to the boil. Top and tail the yams, cut the yams in half if large. Add the yams to the water and cook until just tender (10-12 minutes). Prepare the salad while the yams are cooking. Add the zest, 2 Tbsp of lime juice, sugar and salt to a serving bowl. Add the onion rounds and let them infuse into the lime juice. Drain the yams and add to the lime dressing. Toss gently to combine. Finish with the fresh coriander, chilli, oil and cracked pepper. Combine gently, taste and adjust the lemon and salt if needed. Best served at room temperature.
