Chips rápidos de yuca con 3 ingredientes

Ingredientes

• 1 lb yuca ((cassava root))
• Vegetable oil for frying
• Salt to taste

Preparación

1. 1

   Make sure you find yuca that is the same size all around so the chip slices are even in size.

2. 2

   Peel the yuca completely until you see the white flesh. Be careful since the flesh can be slippery. You may need to use a paper towel to hold it as you are peeling it for a better grip.

3. 3

   Cut the peeled yuca in half so it’s easier to slice and place in cold water to avoid browning.

4. 4

   Using a mandoline, slice the yuca into even paper thin slices (about 1/8-inch thick) then lay them on paper towels to dry. You want them to be as dry as possible before frying.

5. 5

   In a large skillet, heat 1-2 inches of oil at medium heat (350ºF). Fry the yuca slices in batches (don’t overcrowd the pan) for about 2-3 minutes until they are golden brown. Drain on paper towel lined plates and immediately season with salt. Serve and enjoy!
