Batata y Yuca Fritas Recipe (Sweet Potato and Cassava Fries)

Step 1

Cut the sweet potatoes into slices about 1/4-inch thick (if you use yuca cut into sticks).

Step 2

Mix water and salt. Soak the cassava or sweet potatoes in the salted water for half an hour. Remove the cassava or sweet potatoes from the water. Discard the water. Pat cassava or sweet potatoes dry with a paper towel.

Step 3

Heat the oil over medium fire. Fry cassava or sweet potatoes until light golden (be careful with splatters). Rest on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.

Step 4

Mix all the ingredients in the food processor.
