Yam balls: deep fried balls of sweetness 



These are simple snacks that offer a hint of sweetness. Despite being deep-fried, the outside should be dry and not oily. They're best when freshly made, with a soft but chewy interior and a crispy exterior. They often come with skewers, so that you don't burn your hands by touching their hot goodness.

Ha! I wish I had the skill to make them. I purchased these ones in Taiwan. I've also found them locally, though. I've also seen them sold at cultural festivals, like the upcoming 626 Night Market (www.626nightmarket.com).
