Chinese Yams in Spun Syrup

Ingredients:
1 lb (500 g) Chinese yams (or sweet potatoes)
3 cups (750 ml)
vegetable oil for deep-frying;
uses about 2 1/2 oz (75 ml)
5/8 cup (150 g) sugar
Directions:
1.
Wash, peel and roll-cut the yams into pieces. Soak
in boiling hot water and remove immediately.
2. Heat the oil in a wok over medium heat to about
250oF(120oC), or until small bubbles appear around a
piece of green leaf tossed into the oil. Add the
yams and deep-fry until cooked or brown.
3. Pour all but 2 tbsp of the oil out of the wok.
Turn the heat to low and add the sugar, stirring
constantly until it dissolves. Cook until the syrup
caramelises and turns light brown. Immediately add
the yams and remove wok from the heat. Quickly toss
the yam pieces so they are well-coated with the
syrup, which will spin a thread. Place on a plate
and serve immediately. Dip each piece in cold water
to cool it enough to eat.
