A sweet-hot dish - one of my favorite Thanksgiving recipes. This is always a hit. Most people like this best with hot green chiles - Select New Mexico hot green chiles are very good with this and can be found in Costco and at many Walmarts around the country. (see their store locator)

Ingredients
2 lbs yams (about 7 cups diced) 2/3 cup brown sugar 1 tbsp cornstarch 1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp grated orange peel 1 cup orange juice 2 tbsp butter 2/3 cup hot diced green chiles Instructions
