Yuca Frita - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 pound yuca root, peeled and sliced into French fries
1/3 cup canola oil
salt to taste
1 lime, cut into wedges (optional)

Preparation

Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Place the yuca fries in the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Turn occasionally to brown them evenly.
