Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 pounds yuca, peeled, and cut into 4 inch sections
2 quarts vegetable oil for frying
salt to taste

Steps:

  • Place the yuca into a large pot, and add water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the yuca can be pierced easily with a fork, 20 to 30 minutes. Drain, and allow to steam for several minutes until cool enough to handle. Cut the yuca into french fry-sized sticks, discarding the fibrous core.
  • Heat oil in deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Fry the yuca in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes per batch. Remove with a slotted spoon, and drain in a paper towel-lined bowl. Toss with salt to taste, and serve hot.

These fries were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra seasoning next time.

I was a bit skeptical about making yuca fries, but I'm so glad I did! They were so easy to make and they turned out perfectly. I served them with a dipping sauce made from sour cream and salsa, and they were delicious.

These yuca fries were a hit at my last party! They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the flavor was amazing. I'll definitely be making them again.
