Ensalada De Yuca Recipes

Steps:

• Corta ambos extremos de la yuca. Quita la piel marrón gruesa; pela nuevamente hasta alcanzar la piel blanca limpia. Corta la yuca a lo largo por la mitad; retira el cordón fibroso del centro. Córtala en cubos de 1 pulgada. (Deberías de obtener alrededor de 6 tazas de cubos.)
• Coloca los cubos en una cacerola grande; añade agua hasta cubrir la yuca completamente. Agrega el vinagre y la sal y revuelve. Haz hervir esto a fuego medio-alto. Reduce el fuego a medio-bajo; cocina la yuca de 25 a 30 minutos o hasta que esté tierna. Escúrrela. Déjala enfriar completamente.
• Mezcla la mayonesa, los pimientos, la cebollita, el ajo y el tocino en un tazón grande. Incorpora la yuca; mezcla todo ligeramente. Sirve la ensalada de inmediato o guárdala en la nevera hasta el momento de servir.

Steps:

• Cut off both ends of yuca. Peel the thick brown skin; peel again to reach clear white skin. Cut yuca lengthwise in half; remove fibrous cord in center. Cut into 1-inch cubes. (You should have about 6 cups cubes.)
• Place in large saucepan; add enough water to cover yuca completely. Add vinegar and salt; stir. Bring to boil on medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook 25 to 30 min. or until yuca is tender. Drain. Cool completely.
• Mix mayo, peppers, onions, garlic and bacon in large bowl. Add yuca; mix lightly. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Place the peeled and quartered yuca in a pot and cover it with at least 2 quarts water. Cook over high heat until tender, about 30 minutes. Drain the yuca in a colander for 2 minutes. Transfer to the bowl of an electric mixer and add the butter, 1/4 cup of the oil and salt to taste. Mix on medium speed until well incorporated, about 3 minutes. Refrigerate until cool, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Shape the yuca dough into eight 4-ounce balls. Make a hole in one of the balls with your finger and stuff it with a tablespoon of the mozzarella. Flatten it into a thick patty (a tortilla). Repeat with the remaining balls.
• Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add 4 yuca patties and cook until light golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining patties, adding more oil as necessary. Top the tortillas with the Ensalada Criolla.
• Combine the tomatoes, onion and pepper in a large bowl. Add the cilantro, lime juice and salt to taste and toss. Yield: 8 servings
