Peel and cut yams crosswise into 1/4 inch thick slices. Place in large skillet. Combine the sugar, brown sugar, and nutmeg (optional). Sprinkle over sweet potatoes. Dot with the butter and add the water. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to low and cover pan.
After about 20 minutes, check the potatoes to see if they are fork tender. If not, continue cooking for another 5 minutes. By this time, the liquid should start to form a syrup. Remove cover and continue cooking for another 10 minutes or until the syrup has thickened.
