Fried Yucca (Cassava) Costa Rican Style Recipe - Food.com image

This is my favorite Saturday morning treat that my husband always makes for me. Its very easy and tastes way better than potato french fries.

Total Time 30 minutes

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 10 minutes

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 small yucca root (yuca) or 1 medium yucca root (yuca)
2 -3 tablespoons butter (1 knob)
salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Skin the yuca using a potato peeler or a knife.
  • Cut the yuca into 2-3 inch chunks and then cut those chunks in half.
  • Boil the yuca until it is just soft enough to poke with a fork. Don't over boil or let it sit in the hot water or it will become to soft and wont fry.
  • There is a very indigestible stringy part in the middle, be sure to take that out if its visible.
  • Cut the half chunks into smaller fry-shaped pieces.
  • Melt the butter in a frying pan, add the yuca and fry on medium or medium-low heat, turning occasionally until they are browned to your liking.
  • Add salt and dip in ketchup.

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 35 minutes

Yield 6 servings

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.
