Step 1

Cut off both ends of the yuca root. Then cut them into 3 to 4-inch rounds, depending on the length of the yuca.

Step 2

Make a shallow cut lengthwise into the skin of the yuca. Work your thumbs under one side of the cut. Once you’re underneath the peel, you can work your thumbs down the length of the root, peeling the skin off.

Step 3

Stovetop: Bring to boil a pot with plenty of water and salt. Add the rounds to the boiling water. Cook for about 20 to 30 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain and let it cool.

Step 4

Instant Pot (pressure cooker): Place the yuca in the Instant Pot. Add enough water to cover the yuca and salt. Secure lid on the pot. Close the pressure-release valve. Select “Manual”. Cook on high pressure for 10 minutes. When the time is complete, use the quick release to depressurize. Drain and let it cool.

Step 5

Cut yuca pieces in half and remove the inner root. Then cut into fingers.

Step 6

Heat the oil in a large skillet or cast iron with oil up to ½ inch over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Fry the yuca fries in batches, turning once, until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon. Drain over paper towels.
