Cassava Balls image

This is a snack from the Fiji Islands. It is made with fresh cassava or yuca. Frozen yuca could be used, but you would need to squeeze out some water after they thaw out. If you are using a large or extra large egg, you may need another half cup or so of the grated cassava to tighten up the mixture.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cassava balls turned out really oily. I think I might have used too much oil in the frying process.

These cassava balls were a fun and easy snack to make. My kids loved them! The only thing I would change is to use a little less salt in the filling.

I was a bit disappointed with the cassava balls. The tapioca coating was too thick and the filling was too dry. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

Not bad! The cassava balls were a bit bland for my taste, but the texture was nice. I think I'll try adding some more spices next time.

Wow! Just wow! I'm not usually a fan of cassava, but these balls changed my mind completely. The flavor was on point, and the texture was just right - crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. Will definitely make these again!
