Go to the store and buy 3 pounds of yuca.

Clean the yuca and boil it for about 15 minutes.

Mash the boiled yuca with 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter and a little bit of salt.

Shape the yuca into balls after it cools down to avoid burns.

Add some cheddar cheese or yellow cheese to the yuca balls; the creator used a little bit of pizza cheese which disappeared during cooking.

Place the shaped yuca balls in the refrigerator for 5 minutes.

Heat a pan and add a little bit of oil for frying.

Fry the yuca balls one by one to prevent them from sticking together.

Serve the yuca balls with a little ketchup.
