Directions
Yucca With Garlic Sauce (Yuca Con Mojo),This is a staple of Cuba and of course, now of Miami. When you are preparing this recipe be sure to remove any “woody” parts from the center. You can use the frozen yucca or cassava, in place of the fresh. Just follow the package directions but add salt and lime juice to either.,to get the pink onions, you need to pickle the red onion in red wine vinegar, and cook them in the pan 5 minutes before adding the boiled yucca,Do you mean Yuca? Yucca is not Yuca, and vice-versa. Yucca “pronounced yuk-ah” (Yucca filamentosa) is a North American desert plant related to Asparagus and Agave. Yuca “pronounced yoo-cuh” (Manihot esculenta) also known as Cassava or Manioc is a South American tropical plant.
