Simmer diced apples and celery in 1 cup water until just tender. Drain, reserving liquid.
Meanwhile, boil yams in water to cover, approximately 25 minutes. Peel yams and mash with lemon juice, cinnamon, butter, brown sugar, and salt.
Use apple liquid to moisten. Add apple, celery, pecans, and grated lemon rind.
Toss. Taste for seasoning.
