- •2 lb yuca, cut into 4 in (10 cm) pieces
- •2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- •1 large egg
- •1 tablespoon sugar
- •1 teaspoon anise seeds
- •1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
- •1 cup canola oil, for frying
Instructions
- Using a sharp knife, stand each piece upright and carefully slice off the skin.
- Grate the yuca on the small holes of a box grater.
- Add the grated yuca to a large bowl, along with the softened butter, egg, sugar, anise seeds, and salt. Mix until thoroughly combined.
- In a high-walled skillet, heat the canola oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Working in batches, scoop 2 tablespoons of the yuca mixture at a time into your hand and gently press into a ½-inch (1 ¼ cm)-thick fritter. Place on the edge of a metal spatula and carefully lower into the hot oil. Fry the fritters for about 2 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Transfer the fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain. Sprinkle lightly with salt.
- Serve the fritters warm.
- Enjoy!
