Crispy on the outside, tender within, and finished with a sticky-sweet glaze that hits every note — these baked cassava fries are genuinely hard to stop eating. The cassava gets a quick parboil before roasting, which is the secret to that fluffy interior and properly golden edge without any deep frying. Coconut oil, turmeric, and ginger give the fries a warm, earthy base before the real magic happens: a quick stovetop glaze of pure maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and coconut aminos that caramelizes onto the surface in the final minutes of roasting. That tangy-sweet finish is bold enough to stand on its own, but a scatter of fresh parsley right before serving keeps things bright and fresh. Every ingredient here is straightforward and naturally free from tree nut concerns, so there's no label-scanning or substitution stress involved. These are the kind of fries that disappear fast, so consider doubling the batch.
