GRILLED YUCCA WITH HUANCAINA SAUCE
Steps:
- Peel yucca and cut into 4 cylinders; then split in half and remove the root. Place yucca in a large pot. Add enough water to cover yucca and season with salt. Bring to a boil and simmer until fork tender, about 30 minutes.
- Remove from heat and allow to cool. Brush with butter and place on grill. Cook about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove and season with salt.
- Meanwhile, in a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat. Add onion, aji, and garlic. Season with salt and pepper and saute until onion becomes translucent. Remove from heat and add to blender. Add cheese and hard-boiled egg and blend. Slowly drizzle in heavy cream and remaining 2 tablespoons oil until sauce consistency. Adjust salt before serving.
- Serve yucca with huancaina sauce, garnished with hard-boiled egg, olives, and cilantro.

*fnaf_fan*@gmail.comI followed the recipe exactly, but my yucca didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked. I think I will try grilling it for a longer amount of time next time.

labradfordr@gmail.comThe yucca was a bit dry, but the huancaina sauce was delicious. I would try this recipe again, but I would cook the yucca for a shorter amount of time.
