Empanada de Yuca (Puerto Rican)

[@YayitaCrochet51]

La yuca se monda dandole un tajo a la cascará y la vas asacar igual como mondas un guineo verde, me gustan tus recetas muy buenas. No me pierdo tus recetas gracias por compartirlas con nosotros soy de PUERTO RICO DE ARECIBO.

[@LadyUniqueness]

You are an amazing chef!!! I love your passion for cooking and sharing that with others. You keep it simple to understand, which keeps me coming back for more! May God bless you and continue prosper your life.

[@prtrinilan4357]

I remember back in the day in PR they used to be baked/grilled on an outside fogon made of brick & a grill on top! I gotta say I've never added Sofrito to masa nor ever seen anyone else do it, but hey, im gonna try it...why not!

[@juanaipina8079]

[@justrisa1]

Omgawsh! Waaow! I'm at a loss for words, it's just amazing. You have brought me back to a time when my mom and dad made these along with the pasteles de arroz. I can taste it with my eyes closed. They have gone now but the memory stays in me forever. Thank you for this video, I will be making them this weekend. 😙 👍 ❤

[@marukabella1978]

Dios te bendiga. Se ve rico, gracias por tus recetas aprendo mucho.😀

[@glynstercroowz2071]

I'm making them right now, I just had to double check on the video again before I start wrapping them, hopefully I didn't forget nothing,my dad made them once when I was a kid and they were the bomb! I don't know why he never did it again,but he was a man you never questioned about nothing!

[@gladyscruz5739]

Hi Freaking Rican thanks it looks delicious and here in Trinidad and Tobago we make pastelles in a similar way but we use corn flour bit its along d same way we do it. Merry Christmas to you and yours God Bless you and yr channel. Have you ever been to Trinidad come visit sometime lol

My grandma used to make empanadas de Yuca with picadillo inside. I remember that taste. I will try your recipe

[@Thefreakinricanrestaurant]

You should, let me know how they come out.

[@minervagomez4286]

Me encantó que le añadistes sofrito a la masa pq así lo hago también con la masa para pasteles y quedan bien ricos. Empanadas de yuca son mis preferidas y si son hechas al carbón ; mucho mas sabrosas y me remontan a mi niñez.

[@franciscobenitez905]

Great recipe. Looks delicious. Also that ps4 in the background = best ambiance music 👌

[@connieknapp3721]

Wow FreakinRican!! you look like you could be one of my relatives !! For real! God bless you and your family. ❤️ I truly appreciate your videos and your recipes. I made for the first time your rice pudding and I’m telling you it came out AH-MA-ZING!! my daughter and my son-in-law just went apes about it. I didn’t think I would like it but I love it and will continue to make it your way. I have viewed many other ways to make it and I made it other ways but your way is the best way to my taste, loved it!! TY! 😍 As I’m watching how you make pastelles de yucca, you make it seem so easy. But first I want that machine you have. I’ll let you know how I do. Thank you , God bless you and continue to prosper in all you do ❤️❤️❤️

[@Thefreakinricanrestaurant]

Connie - you are sweetness!!! Thank you for all the love. Todos somos familia! Let me know how you did on the pastelles - I look forward to hearing how much your family loved them. Have fun, feed the ones you love and God bless!

[@angyyyee2671]

Yum!! I need to get cooking. You could take that other yucca peel it, slice it into long thin strips and toss them in some beef stew!!! Childhood food!:)

I love the machine but at 69 years of age I have no need for it. When I was younger and made Pasteles all the time I wish I had it. It's a beautiful machine. I can't wait for your festivals to go and see you in person and to eat this food.

[@Edlas22158]

Te felicito! Me gustó mucho que le echaste suficiente carne y a lo largo de la yuca. Empanadas, pasteles o alcapurrias ciegas son la antesala al fracaso. La gente las compra o tres veces pero al final se cansan de comer harina o masa de guineos sin carne y dejan de auspiciar el lugar.

[@maxlamarque6024]

Where do you live now?,I live in the Bronx and you cook just like my mom. I’ve pretty much have saved most of your recipes that remind me of mom, your a true Puerto Rican.

Sofrito a la masa. That's new for me. I started making pasteles recently bc I love them but I don't trust just anybody with the food I eat so I'm in the process of learning how to make them. Tomorrow I'm gonna be making empanadas de yuca so I wanna thank you for sharing this recipe. Btw, you look like the kind of person I would trust with my food other than myself and a few family members.

[@Thefreakinricanrestaurant]

You are so welcome. Thank you for your lovely message. Let me know how they come out!

[@hectornegron9155]

@@Thefreakinricanrestaurant Made 3 of them yesterday with some leftover yuca I had last time I made pasteles and they were pretty good. A bit too soft compared to what I had before, probably bc I had added pumpkin to the masa so I'm gonna try it again without it. In any case I ate them all for lunch so I guess they weren't that bad considering it was the first time. Thanks boricua. Be blessed.

what are the Watts on that machine and for sure definitely officially it is a beautiful machine you can have it anywhere in the kitchen they represent itself however what are the Watts on it how much electricity and power it has how long can you use it 4 so it would not burnout

[@jama5775]

In the States you could buy the Yuca/Casaba already grated packaged in the frozen food section. Or use a food processor which is cheaper...

[@rrhomestead2793]

I have been searching for this for years! I remember back in PR in Juana Diaz, we used to have them and it was kind of baked in a patio made oven with bricks. Don't worry about your muletillas such as om, um hm or what ever. I get that you are from New York. It never fails! lol Great channel bro!

[@Poca1186]
