Walnut Free Maple & Apple Cider Vinegar Cassava Fries

These cassava fries are the kind of snack that makes you forget potato fries ever existed. The yuca gets parboiled first so the inside turns creamy and tender, then roasted at high heat until the edges go properly golden and crisp — a two-step process that's absolutely worth it. A warm glaze of pure maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and coconut aminos gets brushed on right at the end, creating a sticky, tangy-sweet coating that caramelizes beautifully in those final minutes in the oven. The turmeric and ginger in the base seasoning add a subtle warmth that plays off the bright acidity of the glaze in the best way. Every ingredient here is straightforward and naturally free from tree nuts, so there's no label-scanning or substitution stress involved — just clean, bold flavors from start to finish. A scatter of fresh parsley over the top before serving adds a little color and freshness that ties the whole plate together. Serve them immediately while the glaze is still tacky and the edges are at peak crunch.
