ingredients

1 pound yams, peeled
1 teaspoon salt
1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled

directions

Place whole peeled yams in a pot with salt and enough water to cover 2 inches. Bring to a boil and cook uncovered over medium-high heat until the yams begin to soften. Add the peeled sweet potatoes to the same pot and continue cooking for about 15 minutes. Remove each yam and sweet potato when tender. Check for doneness by piercing with a knife. Do not let overcook or yams and sweet potatoes will absorb too much water.

To prepare fufu in the traditional method, place the drained yams and sweet potatoes in a wooden bowl. Pound the yams and sweet potatoes with a mallet in small batches until smooth and satiny. Continue mixing until dough like. Do not add water. Mound the fufu into desired sizes and shapes.
