Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large roots (about 1.25 lbs) cassava root
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon parsley flakes
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the cassava roots thoroughly using a vegetable peeler. Rinse under cold water to remove any remaining dirt or debris.
Using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife, slice the cassava thinly (about 1/8-inch thick) to ensure even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, and parsley flakes. Toss the cassava slices in the mixture until well-coated.
Arrange the cassava slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they do not overlap to allow even crisping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then flip the slices using a spatula. Continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crisp.
Remove the crisps from the oven and allow them to cool for about 5 minutes on the baking sheet. This will help them firm up further as they cool.
Serve immediately as a snack or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
