Mashed Yams Sims Style

Directions

1. 1
   Pre-heat the oven to 375.
2. 2
   With a fork puncture the yams with a couple of fork pokes. I would lay a small sheet of aluminum foil under neath as juices will bake out. Roast the yams for about 45 minutes.
3. 3
   If you like roasted garlic too - you can roast the garlic for about 20 minutes.
4. 4
   Remove them from the oven and let them cool off slightly. You can put them in the fridge to speed up the process. When they are cool enough to handle - cut them in half and scoop out the good stuff.
5. 5
   With a potato masher, mash up the yams. Add the garlic, kosher salt and pepper and the cream cheese. Mix it all together and serve.
6. 6
   The cream texture of the yams and the roasted flavour are divine.
