A very simple recipe that can either be served as an appetizer or as a side dish. If you serve it as an appetizer consider serving with dip (the yuca fritters go very well with mayo or tartar sauce).

Time: 15 Mins
Difficulty: Easy
Serve: 4 people

Before starting to cook: No previous preparation is necessary.

Ingredients:

• 1/2 lb of sweet potatoes or cassava (yuca)
• 1 cup of oil
• 2 tablespoons of salt
• 1 cup of water

Preparation:

1. Dice the sweet potatoes into slices 1/4-inch thick (if you use yuca cut into sticks). Mix the water and salt. Submerge the potatoes in the salted water for a minute. Heat the oil at medium fire. Drain the water from the potatoes and fried until light golden on both sides. Serve hot.
