Yucca Con Mojo
Ingredients
Instructions
- In a large saucepan, combine the yucca with enough water to cover by at least 2 inches and add the salt.
- Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer gently for 30 minutes, until the yucca is fork-tender but still intact.
- Drain the yucca in a colander.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the yucca and stir occasionally for 5 minutes, until slightly browned.
- 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.
