Drain the Yams: Open the can of yams and drain the liquid.

Heat: Place the yams in a saucepan over medium heat. You can add a little water or the syrup from the can if you want more moisture.

Add Flavorings: If desired, add butter, brown sugar, or maple syrup. You can also sprinkle in some cinnamon for extra flavor.

Cook: Stir gently to coat the yams and heat them through for about 5-10 minutes. Be careful not to mash them; you want to keep the pieces intact.

Taste and Adjust: Taste and add salt or additional sweeteners as needed.

Serve: Once heated and flavored to your liking, serve warm.

Alternative Method: Baking

If you prefer a baked version:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Drain the yams and place them in a baking dish.

Add butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon as desired.

Cover with foil and bake for about 20-30 minutes, removing the foil for the last 10 minutes to allow the top to caramelize slightly.
