Yuca, or cassava, is a Latin American root vegetable. This simple dish is the way my granny used to make it.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds yuca, peeled and sliced lengthwise
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ½ onion, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Place yuca into a pan and fill with enough water to cover. Stir in salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, cover, and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain; place yuca on a serving plate.
Step 2
Meanwhile, place olive oil, onion, garlic, and lemon juice into a pan. Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Pour the hot olive oil mixture over the yuca; serve immediately.
