- 150 g Pork cracklings (chicharrón)(crushed or finely chopped)

👨🍳 Инструкции
- 1
Place yuca chunks in a large pot, cover with water, and add a generous pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain well.

While the yuca is cooking, prepare the garlic and olive oil mixture. In a small bowl, combine minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Let it sit to infuse.
- 3
In a large bowl or a pilón (mortar and pestle), add the hot, drained yuca. Begin mashing the yuca.

Add the crushed chicharrón to the yuca and continue mashing and mixing until well combined. The chicharrón should be incorporated throughout the yuca mash.

Gradually add the garlic-olive oil mixture to the yuca and chicharrón, mixing thoroughly. If the mixture seems too dry, add a splash of chicken broth or a little more olive oil until it reaches your desired consistency.

Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

Shape the mofongo into balls or a mound using your hands or a mold. Serve immediately.
