Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Yuca

    Peel the yuca and cut it into 2-inch pieces. Place in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook for about 30-40 minutes or until tender. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Huancaina Sauce

    Soak the Aji Amarillo peppers in hot water for about 10 minutes until softened. Blend the softened peppers with cheese, evaporated milk, lime juice, garlic, and salt until smooth.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Place the cooked yuca on a serving plate and drizzle generously with the Huancaina sauce. Serve warm.
