Yucca Frita With Mango Hibiscus Mermalada And Serrano Lime Aioli Recipes

YUCA FRITA

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Place the yuca fries in the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Turn occasionally to brown them evenly. Remove from the skillet with a slotted spoon or spatula and season with salt. Squeeze lime juice over them if you like and serve immediately.

HIBISCUS-LIME TEA

Steps:

• Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add the hibiscus flowers, agave syrup and lime zest and let steep 7 to 10 minutes.
• Strain through a sieve into a pitcher, discarding the solids. Add the lime juice, 2 cups cold water and 2 cups ice. Serve over ice and garnish with lime.

LULU'S HIBISCUS SALAD

Steps:

• In a pot of boiling water, cook the hibiscus flowers for 20 minutes. Strain and set aside. For the dressing, in a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, mustard and garlic. Thin with a little water if necessary. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside. In a bowl, mix the tomatoes, cilantro leaves, lettuces and onions with the drained hibiscus flowers. Add some dressing and mix again. Season with salt and pepper.
