Grandma's Secret Stovetop CANDIED YAMS Recipe: The Only Way to Make Them!

Grandma says it's not real candied yams or sweet potatoes unless you make them on the stove. And when Grandma speaks, you don't argue. So here we go: stovetop candied yams for the win! Ingredients: 2 large sweet potatoes 1/2 cup brown sugar 1/2 cup white sugar 1/2 stick of butter Zest from half an orange + 1 tablespoon orange juice 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 1 tablespoon cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon water Pinch of nutmeg Instructions: 1. **Prep the Potatoes**: Peel and cut your sweet potatoes into even pieces to ensure they cook evenly. 2. **Layer and Season**: In a medium-sized pot over medium heat, add the water and orange juice. Layer half of the sweet potatoes in the pot, then sprinkle with half of the brown and white sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and vanilla extract. Add the rest of the sweet potatoes on top, then repeat the seasoning. 3. **Cook and Steam**: Partially cover the pot with a lid to allow some steam to escape. Let the potatoes cook untouched for 12 to 15 minutes. 4. **Turn and Finish Cooking**: Remove the lid, gently turn only the top layer of potatoes, and continue cooking uncovered for another 12 to 15 minutes. 5. **Add Butter and Let Rest**: Turn off the heat. Add the butter to the pot, replace the lid, and let it melt into the candied sauce for 5 to 10 minutes. If needed, gently stir to incorporate the butter. Transfer the candied sweet potatoes to a baking dish or plate for serving, drizzle any remaining sauce over the top, and the rest is history!
