🧂 食材
- 2 lbs Yuca (Cassava)(peeled and grated)
- 0.5 medium Onion(finely chopped)
- 2 cloves Garlic(minced)
- 0.25 cup Cilantro(chopped)
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour(or more, as needed for binding)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- for frying Vegetable oil
👨🍳 步骤
- 1
If using fresh yuca, peel and boil until tender, then drain and grate. If using frozen grated yuca, thaw and squeeze out excess moisture.
💡 专业技巧: Ensure yuca is thoroughly cooked and drained to avoid soggy fritters. - 2
In a large bowl, combine the grated yuca, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, and the egg. Mix well.
💡 专业技巧: Using a food processor to finely chop the onion and garlic can ensure even distribution. - 3
Add the flour, salt, and pepper to the yuca mixture. Mix until a cohesive dough forms. The dough should be firm enough to shape but not too dry. Add more flour if needed, a tablespoon at a time.
💡 专业技巧: The amount of flour needed can vary depending on the moisture content of the yuca. - 4
Heat about 2-3 inches of vegetable oil in a deep pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat to 350°F (175°C).
⏱️ 10 minutes💡 专业技巧: Use a thermometer to ensure the oil is at the correct temperature for even frying. - 5
Shape the yuca dough into small balls or flattened patties. Carefully drop them into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pot.
💡 专业技巧: Fry in batches to maintain oil temperature and ensure even cooking. - 6
Fry the buñuelos for about 4-6 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides.
⏱️ 6 minutes💡 专业技巧: Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning. - 7
Remove the buñuelos from the oil with a slotted spoon and place them on a wire rack set over paper towels to drain excess oil.
💡 专业技巧: Allowing them to drain on a wire rack keeps them crispier than draining on paper towels alone. - 8
Serve hot as a snack or appetizer. They are delicious on their own or with a side of curtido or your favorite dipping sauce.
💡 专业技巧: Best enjoyed fresh, while still warm and crispy.
💡 专业技巧
- ✓Ensure the yuca is well-drained to prevent oil splattering.
- ✓Do not overcrowd the frying pot, as this will lower the oil temperature and result in greasy buñuelos.
- ✓The dough consistency is key; it should be moldable but not sticky.
- ✓Experiment with adding a pinch of cumin or a dash of hot sauce to the dough for extra flavor.
