I like mine grilled. Slice into 1/4 inch slices, soak in a little soy,
then coat with olive oil. Cook on the barbecue grill. Sweet potatoes and
yams, as well as beets, parsnips, turnips, and any root vegetable are
good this way. In fact, when I am having a fancy barbecue, I like to
make a grilled root salad.

and soak in soy for 1/2 hour. Pour off soy and coat in olive oil. Grill
on a medium heat until nicely done. Place on a bed of arugula, sprinkle
lightly with rice wine vinegar.
