Receta Cuban Yuca with Mojo

by Gregs Kitchen

  Y’all this is the Cuban Yuca with Mojo that I made in our Cuban Christmas Eve meal with Olga.  I put the video below so you can see how we put it together. It’s where we made the Cuban Pork Roast and the Cuban Black Beans. Yuca is a starchy root that cooks up much like potatoes and can be used in numerous ways like potatoes.  This version is with a onion and mojo sauce which gives the yuca an amazing flavor.  Ingredients: 2 tablespoons olive oil 2-3 cups yuca (cassava) sliced in 2-3 inch pieces 1/2 sliced white onion 1 teaspoon garlic sprinkle of Adobo seasoning 1/2 – 3/4 cup Mojo Pinch of salt Juice of half a lemon Boil  yuca till softened (just like boiling potatoes to mash) While yuca is boiling, prepare the mojo sauce In small sauce pan add olive oil and heat over medium burner till shimmering Add sliced onion and slowly caramelize Add garlic once onion is caramelized and cook 1 minute, don’t let garlic burn Add Adobe, salt and lemon juice.  Stir and cook 1 minute Add mojo and reduce heat and simmer 2-3 minutes Drain yuca and place on a platter Pour mojo sauce over yuca and serve.  10 total views,  10 views today You may like these recipes too: Gregs’ Dark Cherry Crisp Autism Awareness Bourbon, Bacon & Brown Sugar Brussel Sprouts Buttermilk Bacon Ranch Tortellini Salad Key Lime Pie Trina Paul Bearden-My Friend
