Yuca French Fries

1. 1

   Place the sliced yuca in a large pot and cover with water.

2. 2

   Bring the water to a boil and then lower the heat and simmer for 15 to 30 minutes the time can vary a great deal, because yuca can vary greatly in its woodiness.

3. 3

   You want the yuca to still be a little firm just tender enough to pierce it with a fork.

4. 4

   Drain the yuca and place it on a cutting board to cool for a few minutes.

5. 5

   When the yuca is cool enough to handle, cut it into 1/2-to-3/4-inch planks.

6. 6

   (If there are any woody cores to the tubers, discard them.)

7. 7

   Heat the oil in a large skillet or French fryer to 360F, and fry the yuca.

8. 8

   Remove to paper towels to drain.

9. 9

   Season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with Sour Orange Mojo .
