Milhan, thanks for the recipe. This looks soo yummy. My family loves fried mogo. We’re from Tanzania we call mogo. There local people roast mogo on charcoal then slit in the centre and sprinkle with salt chilli powder and lemon soo good it’s a street food, we miss that. Here in Canada we get fried mogo in East African Indian restaurants.
You’re very welcome! We call it mogo too. It’s cooked so many different ways and all are delicious! I’m going to make a curry video on it one of these days too! Enjoy!
My favourite snack for Sunday evening. I’ve never boiled and deep fried it but i steam them and and shallow fry. They still tastes very good but i think this way it becomes more crispier and even more tastier.
oh nice! the street vendors in my childhood in Tanzania would add a cup or two of water to after they put cassava in oil on medium heat. No prior boiling or steaming is done and they turn out very soft inside and super crispy outside by the time all the water has evaporated from the fryer. It think it is a combination of boiling and confit-ing initially and frying at the end when the temperature is higher and all water has evaporated, perfect for cassavas and definitely a time saver.
This is a great go to when entertaining. Thank you for all the tips. If you don't have a pressure cooker you can always also just boil them till tender.
Thank you for your comment Mona! I agree about it being a go-to dish as you can always keep frozen cassava handy in the freezer. And, yes, boil until tender...I especially love the softest cassava once fried! They're the best! But that's our secret! ;o)
How do I asked for Yucca to be cooked throughly? My local peruvian Restaurant that serves this sometimes gives us yucca that's dry, tough and hand hard in the middle. It's also white. Then on other occasions its beautifully soft and golden in color in the middle making it super yummy. Idk what to do help!
I notice a big difference!! In the restaurants, I don’t think they are boiled at all and they taste slightly dry when fried. If you follow this recipe, you’ll see how nice and crisp the outside is and how soft and moist the inside is. Try it and see😃
@@MilhaanHome not exactly, it’s made with green unripe bananas in East Africa! The Gujarati community made it spicy to suit their palate! It’s delicious but I have never found the exact recipe that my mother in law made!
Tapioca flour is made from cassava or mogo. But only the flour or pearls are called tapioca. I’ve never seen or heard the actual root vegetable being called anything other than cassava, mogo or yucca.😊
@@MilhaanHome thanks for reply,,,, I m from India,,, so many times I tried mogo chips in London... But in Indian market,,, it's look like a cassava... So I bring it today n Try to make a chips.. I was confused so I asked.. Thanks
Thank you so much! If you fried it without boiling it first, it will be hard. You definitely should boil it first. If you don't have a pressure cooker, just boil it in a pan until it is cooked. Cool, then fry. You'll love them! They are so good!!
@@maryankabiri5272 I’m not familiar with Winco Foods but check in the frozen section (sometimes with Mexican foods) or you may find fresh cassava which tastes even better!
We cook this as kids growing up. Lovely memory.
It’s lovely! Nice to hear that😊
Thanks a lot for your recipe. I didn't expect if we can fry cassava. Great recipe.I have cassava at home. Will try it.
Yes, you can and it is so delicious with my coriander-lime mayonnaise! Do try it!
The last photo you plated so beautifully 🤗
Thank you so much 😊

@@MilhaanHome I love your videos. Can’t wait to watch your curry video. Thanks
I miss it too much! and the Swahili is 'mhogo'. So cool to learn of 'mogo' which is a closer name than yuca or cassava.

Anjna G It really does. These came out so crispy! And the salt in the water made them taste just perfect! I think you’ll like it if you try it😃

Nicely done and explain!!!

I know what you mean!! I don’t like it hard at all. Maybe you can ask them how they cook it and then suggest they boil it first ☺️
@@MilhaanHome I'll try that! Because it is such a let down KNOWING how good it tastes and instead I'm met with a white, fiberous, Hard, Dry Startch. 🥺
I know!!🙄 Once you’ve tasted great Yucca, there’s no going back!
No Brasil 🇧🇷 Madioca,Aipim,Macaxeira !! 😆👍🏻
obrigada! 🙏🏽

Welcome to my Channel! I hope you enjoy the videos 🥰
What is the difference re taste and pleasure between pre-boiled and not pre-boiled?
I notice a big difference!! In the restaurants, I don’t think they are boiled at all and they taste slightly dry when fried.

@@MilhaanHome Thanks for your quick response.
@@secondfallsurvivor My pleasure 😊
How about the old fashioned matoke recipe, with coconut milk, Kenyan style!
I’ve not heard of this. Is it a curry?
@@MilhaanHome not exactly, it’s made with green unripe bananas in East Africa! The Gujarati community made it spicy to suit their palate! It’s delicious but I have never found the exact recipe that my mother in law made!
@@Deedeevenice I see!! Let me check with my mother-in-law… she makes matoki in a sauce with sesame seeds and tomatoes. She may know😊
I love mogo ime from Malawi we call it chinagwa
Oh nice! I’ve never heard it called Chinagwa. I learned something new today 😃♥️🙏🏽
Tapioca is that same mogo or cassava?????? Please let me know... Thanks for delicious recipe... 🌹👍

@@hetalbhatt7777 I see! I’m glad you asked! Enjoy 😊
Yes, I've heard of some people calling it tapioca.
@@OhSoCarmen Thank you for helping out here😊

Thank you so much! They do come out perfect!
Hello Milan’s. Great recipe. May I ask where are you from?
jamaican wash Thank you! I’m from London but my husband was born in E. Africa. That’s how I learned about cassava😃
Looks delicious. I cannot wait to try this. Do you think I can deep fry Cassava without boiling it first?
Thank you so much!

@@MilhaanHome where can I buy it does winco food sells it

I'm curious to see the taste
Egodinnma 2014 Give it a go! I think you’ll like it 😊
Every bar in south america.
Nice!! Yes, it’s very popular there! Love it!!♥️
It is delicious if only boiled.with.some sugar and u eat with honey.too
Nice!😃
I tend to avoid dishes that involve deep frying as I never know what to do with all the left over oil 🤣
I clean the oil by sieving it and then using it for tempering my curries along with some fresh oil (50:50) and it works great! Give it a go!
Are you from East Africa? Cause you call it mogo
No but my husband and in-laws are… from Jinja😊
.........🎉
😃🎉
She is so beautiful 😍😍😍
LOL! Yes she is!
I think I've heard this accent is somewhere... 😂😂
Yeah! It's a mixture of British English and the American twang! I can't help it!!
@@MilhaanHome my old professor used to used to sound just like u 😂 he's from swinsdon
Oh that's funny! I hope I've brought back some good memories!

10 minutes in pressure cooker is too Much i will just add milk and cardamon in it instead frying it .🙏♥️🇺🇸🦅🇲🇺🦤
Large pieces should be fine once cooled. But this is a new idea for me by adding milk and cardamom 😊
