1. 1

   Apricots are quite delicious with yams.

2. 2

   Leave the ginger in big pieces and pull it out later, or finely chop it and leave it with the yams, as you wish.

3. 3

   If the skin on the yam looks firm and smooth, scrub the yam. Otherwise, peel it.

4. 4

   Cut the yam into rounds slightly less than 1/2" thick, and cut each round into quarters, or sixths if it is very large.

5. 5

   Combine all the ingredients in a small saucepan, cover with 1 1/2 C water, bring to a boil, then simmer, covered, for 1/2 hrs.

6. 6

   Check the pan and add more water, in small increments if necessary, until the yams are completely cooked, another 20 minutes or so.

7. 7

   Allow whatever liquid is left to boil down until a small amount of sauce is left.

8. 8

   Pile into a bowl and serve.
