4 servings
- 2 lb fresh cassava (yuca), peeled and cut into 3-inch x ½-inch sticks
- 3 tbsp coconut oil, melted

- 1 tsp lime zest (from about 1 lime)
- 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
- ½ tsp ground turmeric
- 1 tsp sea salt, plus more to taste
For serving

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cassava sticks and cook for 8–10 minutes, until just tender when pierced with a fork but not falling apart. Drain well and spread on a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to dry for 5 minutes — excess moisture prevents crisping.
