How to choose fresh and delicious cassava
- Choose cassava with fresh, plump, straight roots, and smooth skin.
- Gently scrape the thin outer skin with your nail, if the inner skin is light pink, it is a good choice. Roots with light pink skin have fewer toxins than those with white skin.
- Do not store cassava for too long as it will become dry, tough, and lose its taste.
- Avoid buying overly large roots, soft stems, those with strange odors, or dry and withered skin.
How to prepare Fried Cassava

Prepare the cassava
Buy cassava, peel it, wash it thoroughly, and soak it in water for 4 hours. After that, rinse with diluted salt water and then rinse with cold water 2 – 3 times and let it drain.
Then, use a multi-functional peeler to slice all the cassava into thin round slices.
How to clean cassava thoroughly, removing all latex:- First, you should scrub the sandy layer on the outer skin of the cassava to prevent dirt from sticking to the inside during peeling.
- Cut off both ends of the cassava as these parts contain a lot of latex, then peel the skin cleanly, removing all the black spots on the body of the cassava.
- To completely remove the latex, soak the cassava in salt water overnight or at least 4 – 6 hours and then rinse with cold water 2 – 3 times.

Fry the cassava
Place a pan on the stove and heat 100ml of cooking oil until boiling, then add each thinly sliced piece of cassava to fry over medium heat.
Continuously stir and fry until the cassava becomes firm and golden crispy, then remove it to let it drain.
After frying, place the cassava into a bowl or a large bowl to prepare for the next step.
Tip: You should divide the cassava into two portions and fry them separately; do not fry all the cassava at once as they may stick together!

Cooking syrup and finishing
Put a pot on the stove over medium heat, add 70g of sugar and 2 tablespoons of water, and stir until the sugar dissolves.
Cook until white sugar crystals appear on the sides of the pot.
Pour the syrup over the crispy fried cassava and mix well so that the syrup is evenly absorbed into the cassava.
