Vegan Yucca Fries with Roast Garlic Aioli

The outside of these vegan yucca fries is crispy, and the inside is soft. They come with a creamy roast garlic aioli. It's great as a snack or a side dish.

Ingredients:

• 2 large yucca roots, peeled and cut into fries
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 head of garlic
• 1/2 cup vegan mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
• Salt to taste

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 425F 220C

In a large bowl, toss the yucca fries with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated

Spread the seasoned yucca fries in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper

Cut the top off the head of garlic to expose the cloves, drizzle with a little olive oil, and wrap in aluminum foil

Place the wrapped garlic on the baking sheet with the yucca fries

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the yucca fries are golden brown and crispy

While the fries are baking, prepare the roast garlic aioli

Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins into a bowl
