About Fried yuca
Fried yuca, also known as cassava fries, is a popular dish originating from Latin American and Caribbean cuisines. Made from the starchy root vegetable yuca (or cassava), the preparation involves peeling, boiling, cutting into wedges, and frying until crispy. Yuca is naturally gluten-free, high in carbohydrates, and provides fiber, vitamin C, and potassium. While it offers energy and essential nutrients, the frying process adds extra calories and fat, which can make it less heart-healthy if consumed excessively. Often served as a snack or side dish, fried yuca is typically seasoned with salt and paired with dips like garlic sauce or aioli, giving it a satisfying flavor and texture. Its versatility and rich taste make it beloved worldwide, but moderation is key to balance its nutritional impact.
