  • 1 ½ lb cooked and mashed yuca or cassava
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • Melado

Instructions
 

  • Form small balls with the mashed yuca using your hands and place on a plate.
  • Fill a large skillet with oil, deep enough to cover the entire ball and heat over medium-high heat.
  • Carefully add the yuca balls to the oil and fry them for about 4 to 5 minutes or until golden on all sides, turning over once about halfway through.
  • Remove from the oil and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb the oil.
  • Place on a serving plate and pour the melado over the yuca balls.
