Dear christy, Can u plz tell me what is yam?

christy gerald

Mr.Padmanabhan,u can peel and cut the Yam into 1 or 1 1/4 inch size pieces only cause u r pressure cooking it with mutton pieces upto 5 whistles .(if u add 1/2 inch size pieces,yam will get over-cooked or mashed).

Hi! christy instead of 1 inch pieces of yam 1/2 inch will be better because easy to boil and gravy will be tasty. napmallya@gmail.com
