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.

Steps:
- Place the yucca in a large 6-quart pot. Cover with 5 quarts cold water. Add the salt and bring to boil over high heat. Lower heat to medium and cook covered until it feels tender when pierced with a fork but still keeps its shape, about 30 minutes. Be careful not to overcook because yucca can turn into a gooey paste. Turn the heat to low and leave the yucca in the hot water until ready to serve.
- For The Mojo Sauce: While the yucca cooks, prepare the mojo sauce. Heat the olive oil until fragrant in a medium frying pan over medium-high heat. Saute the onion rings until lightly golden. Add the garlic and the cumin and saute, stirring for a few seconds, until golden. Pour in the bitter orange juice. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Very quickly, drain the yucca in a large colander and transfer to a decorative serving platter. Cover with the mojo sauce and serve piping hot.
- In Cuba and the Hispanic Caribbean, yucca con mojo is served alongside rice and beans and roast pork

Steps:
- Cook yuca in a medium pot of boiling salted water (2 tablespoons salt for 4 quarts water) until fork-tender, about 25 minutes (thinner pieces may need less time and can be removed with a slotted spoon).

- Stir together lime juice, vinegar, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper until salt has dissolved. Cook onion and garlic in oil in a small skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened but not colored, about 4 minutes. Pour lime-juice mixture, then hot garlic oil, over yuca and toss to coat.

Steps:
- Make sauce:
- Pulse together sauce ingredients in a food processor until smooth.
- Fry yuca:
- If using fresh yuca, trim ends and cut crosswise into 3-inch pieces, then peel, removing waxy brown skin and pinkish layer underneath.
- Cover yuca (fresh or frozen) with cold salted water by 1 inch in a 4-quart pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until yuca is tender when pierced with a wooden skewer, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to several layers of paper towels to drain, then cool 5 minutes. Cut yuca lengthwise into 1/8-inch-wide wedges, discarding thin woody core. (If there are pieces that have white parts to them, return them to barely simmering water and simmer until almost translucent.)
- Heat about 1 1/2 inches oil in a 4- to 5-quart heavy pot over moderate heat until it registers 360°F on thermometer.
- Fry yuca in 3 batches, turning occasionally, until golden, 3 to 5 minutes per batch. Transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. (Return oil to 360°F between batches.) Sprinkle fries with salt and serve with cheese sauce.
