Made with yucca, or cassava, a Latin American root vegetable similar to potatoes, this simple dish is the way my granny used to make it. Ingredients:
2 pounds yucca, peeled and sliced lengthwise |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 cup olive oil |
1/2 onion, diced |
4 cloves garlic, minced |
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice |
Directions:
1. Place the yucca into a pan and fill with enough water to cover. Stir in salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, cover, and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain, and place yucca on a serving plate.
2. Meanwhile, place the olive oil, onion, garlic, and lemon juice into a pan. Cook over medium heat about 5 minutes. Pour the hot olive oil mixture over the yucca, and serve immediately.
