Mashed Yuca with Mojo
Yuca is a Spanish word for cassava, the starchy root from which tapioca is made. This nourishing Cuban staple side dish recipe is usually served in plain chunks or mashed, but you can enliven its blandness with the garlicky sauce known as mojo. Cubans use sour oranges, but limes work just as well.
