Yuca con Mojo is a traditional Cuban side dish made from boiled yuca (cassava root) topped with a zesty mojo criollo sauce made of garlic, sour orange juice (or lime), olive oil, and sometimes onions. With origins in Cuba’s rural kitchens, it’s a popular accompaniment to roasted meats like lechón asado, and a staple at holiday meals, Nochebuena feasts, and paladares. The starchy yuca absorbs the garlic-citrus flavor beautifully, offering a hearty, tangy bite.

Common variations include yuca frita con mojo (fried version) or adding sautéed onions and parsley for extra flavor.
