One cup of Fried yam is around 238 grams and contains approximately 357 calories, 4.8 grams of protein, 12 grams of fat, and 71.0 grams of carbohydrates.
Fried Yam is a deliciously crispy dish popular in West African cuisine, made from starchy yams cut into thick slices and deep-fried to golden perfection. This savory treat is often enjoyed as a snack or side dish and can be paired with spicy dips or sauces to enhance its flavor. While fried yam is undeniably tasty, it should be enjoyed in moderation due to its higher calorie content from frying. However, yams themselves are a great source of dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals, making this a delightful indulgence that’s both flavorful and satisfying.
