This may sound odd, but it is a delicious main dish for lunch or dinner.

Serve over waffles.
If desired, grate cheese (D) over the top.

Yuca root is a great replacement for potatoes. This recipe can be made with potatoes also.
FOOD CATEGORY | INGREDIENTS |
---|---|
C |
2 cups cooked yuca root |
E |
2 eggs |
1/4-1/2 cup sweet onion, grated or finely minced |
|
G |
2 Tbsp. corn starch or 1/4 cup brown rice flour |
Safflower or peanut oil for frying |
Prepare yuca root: Peel off outside skin. Cut in sizes easy to handle. Remove thin inner woody core. Cut in 1" size pieces.
Place in steamer or saucepan. Add salt to taste, a clove of minced garlic, if desired, 2 Tbsp. oil or butter. Steam or boil until tender. Drain. Mash (adding liquid as necessary to make a smooth mash). Set aside.
To make pancakes:
Place eggs in a mixing bowl and beat well, until frothy.
Add mashed yuca and onion. Mix well.
Mix in corn starch or brown rice flour.
Pour enough oil in skillet so the pancakes will be half covered, to medium high. You want the oil to be hot enough to fry and keep the pancakes from getting greasy, but not hot enough to cook too fast and burn. Test the oil first with a drop of batter to be safe.
Using a serving spoon,
scoop batter and pour into hot oil. Cook on one side until golden brown. Turn and repeat.
Immediately remove from oil and drain.
Serve as side dish, or as desired.
Serving suggestions: Delicious served with sour cream (D), apple sauce (F), TOMATO CATSUP, etc.
Yield: 2 servings.
VARIATION: Substitute potatoes for the yuca.
Olive oil (F) or your choice may also be used for frying pancakes.
