👨🍳 Інструкції

In a large pot, combine the fish steaks, yuca, cilantro stems, cumin, achiote, salt, and pepper. Add enough water or fish broth to cover everything. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the yuca is tender and the fish is cooked through, about 25-30 minutes.

While the fish and yuca cool, prepare the 'curtido' (onion relish). In a bowl, combine the thinly sliced red onions with lime juice and a pinch of salt. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
