DIRECTIONS

STEP 1

Assemble the aioli by whisking all the ingredients into the mayonnaise until thoroughly incorporated.

STEP 2

Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Boil the yuca for 10 minutes until softened.

STEP 3

Heat the fat in an electric deep-fryer according to your fryers directions or deep, heavy-bottomed pot to 350° F over medium heat. When the fat comes to temperature in the pot, reduce the heat and try to maintain it's temperature as close to 350° F as possible.

STEP 4

Fry the yuca spears in batches, only about 6 at a time, for 4-6 minutes or until golden brown.

STEP 5

Remove from the oil and set on a paper fowl lined cooling rack, sprinkle immediately with sea salt on both sides.

STEP 6

Serve immediately once all of the yuca is done with the aioli or any dipping sauce of choice. Tessamaes ketchup is great with it too.
