Yucca Con Mojo

1. 1

   In a large saucepan, combine the yucca with enough water to cover by at least 2 inches and add the salt.

2. 2

   Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.

3. 3

   Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer gently for 30 minutes, until the yucca is fork-tender but still intact.

4. 4

   Drain the yucca in a colander.

5. 5

   Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

6. 6

   Add the yucca and stir occasionally for 5 minutes, until slightly browned.

7. 7

   Add the garlic and lemon juice and toss to coat the vegetables evenly.

   Cook for 2 minutes, just to release the aroma of the garlic, and add the cilantro and bell pepper julienne.

   Toss again just to mix and transfer to a warm serving platter.
