Yuca Mangú, or Mashed Yuca with Garlic Sauce, is a breakfast staple in the Dominican Republic. Here, we feature frozen GOYA® <a title="Yuca" href="/en/products/frozen-ingredients/tropical-vegetables-and-peas#yuca-frozen">Yuca</a>, which boasts a mild, creamy consistency (similar to a potato) – the ideal canvas for the red-onion-and-garlic-spiked sauce.
