Place the yuca in the pressure cooker and fill it with enough water to cover the yuca. Cook under high pressure for five minutes.
While your yuca is cooking. Cut half an onion into slices and mince three garlic cloves. Coat the bottom of a saute pan with olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Once hot, add your onions and garlic and sautee for about four minutes. (You want to get the onions nice and soft, without overcooking them so that they retain their crunch.)
Once the yuca is done cooking, remove them from the pot. Place on a serving platter and remove the middle tough part with a fork. (You may have to cut some in half lengthwise to do this.)
Sprinkle the garlic powder and salt over them and afterwards, lay out your onion and garlic mojo on top. Serve and enjoy!

Peel the yucca, making sure to remove all layers of outer skin and gray veins. Yucca should be completely white. Cut in half, lengthwise, and then in thirds. Add yucca in a stockpot and cover with enough cold water so that it is covered completely. Boil for 20-25 minutes, or until tender. Be sure to remove inner root once the yucca has “opened”. Drain and put on a plate.
While your yucca boils, add oil to a frying pan. On very low heat, add onion, lime juice and minced garlic to oil and cook until onions are softened. Add salt as needed.

In a saucepan, add yuca with enough salted water to cover the yuca. Bring to a boil then reduce heat. Cover and simmer for about 30 minutes until the yuca is fork tender. Careful not to overcook it or you run the risk of the yuca getting too mushy.
Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, heat the olive oil at medium heat. Add the sliced onions and sauté for 5 minutes until they are softened and translucent. Add in the minced garlic, pinch of black pepper, and salt to taste (start with 1/4 teaspoon then adjust to taste). Sauté the garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant then whisk in the sour orange juice until all is combined. Set aside.
Drain the yuca, transfer to a large bowl with a lid and remove the stringy, fibrous core from the center of each piece of yuca, if desired.
Pour the hot garlic mojo sauce over the yuca making sure it is all well coated. Cover the bowl and allow it to cool for 10-15 minutes so the yuca absorbs the mojo. Serve immediately and enjoy!
