Step:

  1. Heat oven to 425. Cut the yams into wedges. Whisk together the honey, tablespoon of paprika and crushed red-pepper flakes and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Put yam wedges in a large bowl, and toss them with the mixture. Let it sit for 10 minutes or so, tossing once or twice to coat, as the oven heats.

  2. Transfer the yams to a foil-lined, rimmed baking sheet, season with salt and pepper and then bake until they are deeply caramelized around the edges and soft when pierced with a fork at their thickest part, approximately 30 to 35 minutes.

  3. As the yams roast, combine the yogurt, lime juice and remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a small bowl, and whisk to combine, then season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

  4. When the yams are done, transfer them to a serving platter, drizzle the yogurt over them and garnish with the remaining paprika, the scallions and some flaky sea salt if you have any.
