  1. Here are three recipes- a Dessert, a snack or appetizer and a main dish- enjoy all. If you search for cassava or yuca- same thing

    Cassava Cake

    1 pkg. Cassava, shredded

    1  coconut, shredded

    1 c. milk

    1 egg

    1 c. condensed milk

    Preheat oven for 5 minutes at 375 degrees. Mix Cassava and coconut with 1 cup of milk. (8 x 10 inch pan). Bake the mixture for 30 to 35 minutes. Take it out from the oven. Beat 1 egg with 1 cup of condensed milk. Pour it evenly on top of the baked Cassava. Put the mixture back in the oven and bake it again for 20 minutes. Let it cool, then slice as desired.

    Yucca (cassava)  Fries

    1 yucca root (approx 6-7inches long)

    Oil (Olive or Canola – enough to generously coat a frying pan)

    Salt and Pepper

    Peel the yucca root using a peeler and cook in boiling water for 15 minutes or until you can stick a fork comfortably into the yucca. Make sure it remains somewhat firm; you do not want to over cook the yucca and have soggy fries.

    Drain the water and let the yucca root cool until it is comfortable to handle. Cut it in half, lengthwise, and then into small fries approx 3 inches in length and ½ inch thick (or thinner if you wish).

    Generously coat the bottom of a frying pan with oil and let heat for 2 minutes. Submerge the fries in the oil and cook for about 5 minutes or until golden. I suggest cooking the fries in batches so they do not stick together. Allow enough space between the fries when cooking, as I found they easily got stuck together. After about 5 minutes or until the desired goldenness has been reached, remove the fries from the pan and let cool on a paper towel. I actually used a cookie cooling rack, with a paper towel laid over the top, to absorb the excess oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, serve and enjoy!

    Yucca with Garlic Sauce

    1 pound yucas (peeled and cut into 1 inch chunks)

    1 to 2 large onions (thinly sliced)

    1/4 cup orange juice

    1/4 cup lime juice

    1 tablespoon cilantro (chopped)

    6 garlic cloves (minced)

    1/4 cup olive oil

    orange wedges for garnish

    1. Boil the yuca in salted water until tender, about 30 minutes.

    2. Drain the yuca, set in serving dish, and set aside.

    3. In a bowl, combine the onions, orange juice, lime juice, cilantro, and garlic.

    4. In a heavy pan, heat the olive oil until hot. Pour hot oil over the yuca.

    5. Garnish with orange wedges.

    Try making cassava chips, they have more fiber and vitamins than regular potato chips and you can either deep fry or bake them. I've actually not made them myself but I bought cassava chips at the store before and I loved them.
