Ingredients
- 2 pounds cassava, peeled and cut into short lengths
- 1 tablespoon salt
- water
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup butter (and more for serving), softened
- 1 cup American processed cheese, shredded
Instructions
- Brush sides and bottom of a baking dish with softened butter or margarine and set aside.
- In a pot over medium heat, combine cassava, salt, and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook, uncovered, for about 15 to 20 minutes or until very tender. Drain from liquid and allow to cool.
- Remove the tough, stringy core and discard. With a mortar and pestle or using a potato masher, mash boiled cassava until free of lumps.
- In a bowl, combine mashed cassava (about 4 cups), condensed milk, and butter. Gently stir until smooth and creamy.
- Transfer mixture into the prepared baking dish and use a spatula to evenly spread. Run the tines of a fork on the surface to make decorative lines, if desired.
- Spread softened butter on top, if desired. Sprinkle top with shredded cheese and cut into servings.
