Serving Suggestions: Serve yam balls as a snack with a side of dipping sauce such as ketchup, garlic sauce, or sweet chili sauce. They also pair well with fresh salads or as an accompaniment to a main dish.
Storage Tips: If you have leftovers, allow the yam balls to cool completely before storing them in an airtight container. You can store them in the fridge for up to 3 days. For a crispy texture when reheating, pop them in an oven or air fryer for a few minutes.
Variations:
Vegetarian Yam Balls: Omit the cheese or use plant-based cheese for a vegan-friendly version of the recipe.
Spicy Yam Balls: Add some finely chopped chili or cayenne pepper to the yam mixture for a spicy kick.
Baked Yam Balls: For a healthier option, instead of frying, place the yam balls on a lined baking tray and bake them at 375°F (190°C) for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
