Wheat Free Maple & Apple Cider Vinegar Cassava Fries

Cassava fries are already a revelation on their own, but tossing them in a sweet-tangy maple and apple cider vinegar glaze takes things to a completely different level. The yuca gets parboiled first so the inside stays creamy and tender, then roasted at high heat until the edges go golden and slightly crisp — a texture that's genuinely hard to achieve with a grain-free fry. Coconut oil, turmeric, and a hint of ginger give the base layer warmth and color before the glaze even enters the picture. That glaze — maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and coconut aminos reduced into something sticky and lacquered — is the kind of thing you'll want to drizzle on everything else in your kitchen. Because every ingredient here is naturally free of wheat and gluten-containing grains, there's no need to scrutinize labels or worry about hidden flour in a coating or sauce. A scatter of fresh parsley at the end keeps things bright and pulls the whole plate together. These are best served straight from the oven while the glaze is still tacky and the edges have that satisfying bite.
