The Yammy French Resistance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I sent the YAMMY FRENCH RESISTANCE breakfast recipe to our weekly recipe e-mail subscribers last week, and asked for a new name.
What name do you think it should have? Sorry POLL CLOSED on SUNDAY NOVEMBER 23rd.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yep – that really is what Dad has called his creation…The YAMMY FRENCH RESISTANCE so please take the POLL and give this delightful dish a name it can be proud of!!
This recipe makes 2 servings.
What you’ll need:
- 1 Large Yam
- 4 eggs
- 2 large (plate size) crepes
- 4 Tablespoons Medium Salsa
What you do:
- Cook the Yam in the microwave. Remember to pierce it with your fork before you cook it. Every microwave is different but it should only take 5 minutes on high to cook it (smaller yams will take less time and very big yams will take 7 or so minutes).
- Take the cooked Yam out, slice it into 1/2 inch slices and peel the skin off.
- In a skillet, heat a tiny bit of butter (or use non-stick spray), and brown each side of the Yams.
- While your Yams are browning, take out another skillet and poach the eggs (I’ve included instructions on poaching eggs below).
- Warm up the crepes (you can do this in the microwave for a few seconds or heat them in a pan).
- Warm up the salsa in the microwave.

- Lay each crepe out flat on a large plate. Spread the warmed salsa generously over the warmed crepe.

- Fold each crepe inward to form a square (see picture below). Place 2 slices of yam on top, then place 2 poached eggs on top. Add a bit of salsa on top of the eggs, then garnish if you want to (they used Rosemary and some fresh flowers).

Loved the ease in which I could vote. I have been reading your blog since its onset, but due to my limited knowledge of roaming a blog I messed up and was not able to send my original comments on your Blog. Love your recipes keep them coming.
Cheers, Linda

Thanks @Gr. M. I have actually never heard of a modern egg poacher but it sounds like a great little appliance or tool to have around the house.

Hola, me parece muy creativa la receta; pero me gustaría saber si el ñame se debe cocinar antes del microondas, es decir, en agua, para quitar las toxinas?
