Best Fried Yucca (Yuca Frita) in London, Ontario

(3 reviews)

Our yuca frita is a Salvadoran street-food classic and the ultimate comfort side. Chunks of cassava are boiled until tender, then fried to a golden crisp and piled high. Served with tangy curtido and salsa, and topped with chicharron if you like, it is crunchy, fluffy and completely addictive.

Yuca Frita (Fried Yucca) at Pupuseria Rosa's Latin Food - authentic Latin American food in London, Ontario

Yuca frita is a staple of Salvadoran cooking, and at Pupuseria Rosa's Latin Food we make it the authentic way. We boil the cassava until soft and fluffy inside, then fry it until the outside turns crisp and golden.

Served with our house-made curtido and a side of salsa, the yuca is bright, tangy and satisfying. Add crispy chicharron for the traditional yuca con chicharron experience. It makes a perfect shareable side or a hearty vegetarian snack on its own.
