Haven't had these in a while because we just can't seem to find them in his country?? But, I definitely prefer them to regular French Fries for one reason!! You can’t eat as many. They are really filling so I’m saving tons of calories.

My husband simply cut it up into sticks and then fried them in a frying pan using regular canola oil. That was it. When they turned a gorgeous shade of creamy brown, he drained them on paper towel and served them. I think that I can eat a grand total of about four before saying... that's it!!

Has anyone else tried them??

Not sure what you mean by Yucca - that's a rubber plant tree isn't it..for decoration only. French Fries is a the equivalent of McDonalds fries..not much cop nor quality.

Yucca? Don't think I've had those.

I've had sweet potato fries though.

We make then on occasion, as you said they are filling on a very small amount v potatoes.

Actually, you inspired me to add a Yucca to my list for this week end! Thanks!

I do not know any place to get yucca or I would try them. Like others, I like the sweet potato fries.

I never heard of them. Sweet potato fries are excellent.

Can't say I have tried them or for that matter even heard of them.

Yep, have had them frequently. The desert where my son and I camp is filled with them.

I have had them once, but it was in the Caribbean. That's great that you can make them now!
