Yuca Frita

This is a tasty Latin side dish, that I always enjoy making. It’s a great alternative to french fries or potatoes. This is also great if your looking for a real, ethnic appetizer or tapa!

Step: 1

Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Place the yuca fries in the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Turn occasionally to brown them evenly. Remove from the skillet with a slotted spoon or spatula and season with salt. Squeeze lime juice over them if you like and serve immediately.

One of most clear way to choose a side dish is to caught at your main dish (pasta, chicken, seared tofu) and choose something different. If you’re cooking pasta, go for a simple vegetable . Made steak? Go for something light. If you’re want to cooking stir-fry with rice, it must not a best idea to also make a rice salad.

One make sure is also can make to cooking method . You don’t want to push more often your oven by scheduling three dishes at once in there, or be juggling four pans on the stovetop . But sometimes you can make a dish do double-duty .
