Ingredients

1 3/4 lb yuca root
3 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp sea salt
1 1/2 tbsp ghee (optional)
1/2 tsp ground black pepper

Steps

Peel the yuca, cut it into 2-inch pieces, and remove the woody center.
Place the yuca and garlic in a large pot with the water and salt.
Boil for 25 minutes until the yuca is very tender and splits easily.
Drain the yuca and garlic, then return them to the warm pot.
Mash with the ghee and pepper until mostly smooth, adding water by spoonfuls if needed.
Rest the mash for 5 minutes before serving.
