Artificial Flavors Free Maple & Apple Cider Vinegar Cassava Fries

These oven-baked cassava fries hit that rare sweet-savory-tangy combination that makes it genuinely hard to stop eating them. Fresh yuca is parboiled until just tender, then roasted at high heat with coconut oil, turmeric, and ginger until the edges turn golden and the surfaces crisp up beautifully. The real magic happens with the glaze — pure maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and coconut aminos reduce into a sticky, lacquered coating that clings to every fry and caramelizes slightly in those final minutes in the oven. Every ingredient here is exactly what it says it is: no flavor packets, no mystery seasonings, just whole pantry staples doing honest work. That matters more than it sounds, because so many store-bought sauces and seasoning blends sneak in synthetic flavor compounds that are easy to miss on a label. Finishing with a scatter of fresh parsley adds a bright, herby pop that balances the richness of the glaze. Serve them straight from the oven while the coating is still tacky and the edges have that satisfying crunch.
