• Fill a deep saucepot 1/2 way with canola oil, heat to 375 degrees F. Fry the carimanolas until golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes.

Steps:

• Season the pork with salt and pepper. In a heavy-bottomed pressure cooker, heat 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil and sear the pork until browned on all sides, about 3 minutes per side. Add the chicken stock, onion, carrot, wine, celery and thyme. Cover and cook until the meat shreds easily with a fork, 2 to 3 hours. Remove the pork from the cooking liquid, reserve the cooking liquid. Shred the pork and set aside. Transfer the cooking liquid to a medium saucepan and cook the jus until slightly reduced, about 10 minutes.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Cook the yucca until fork-tender, about 10 minutes. Drain thoroughly and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and cut into cubes.

• Put the whole chicken on a plate with the fried yucca root around, and the 2 sauces on the side for dipping.

Steps:

• Peel yucca and cut into 4 cylinders; then split in half and remove the root. Place yucca in a large pot. Add enough water to cover yucca and season with salt. Bring to a boil and simmer until fork tender, about 30 minutes.
• Remove from heat and allow to cool. Brush with butter and place on grill. Cook about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove and season with salt.

Steps:

• Start making making the Green Sauce. Combine lettuce, mayonnaise, lime juice, cilantro, peppers, garlic, and salt in a blender. Blend until smooth. Put into a serving dish.
• Next, we fry the yucca. Peel the yucca with a knife and throw away the hard skin. Cut the flesh into 1/2 inch thin strips about 4 inches long. Heat a large iron skillet or nonstick frying pan to medium high heat with about half your oil. I like grape seed oil because it gives a nice crispness to the yucca and it's healthy. Reserve the remaining oil for the 2nd half of your yucca. Organize the yucca in the frying pan into a single layer. fry half the yucca until light golden brown and then flip it over to fry on the other side. Remove when it's golden brown on both sides and place onto a paper towel to drain. Cook the 2nd batch the same way.
• Serve the yucca on a plate, and give each person a small bowl or cup of the green sauce for them to dip their yucca into.
