This recipe is a rich tasting, Latin version of mashed potatoes. It's quite dense so even half a serving might satisfy. Serve with Cuban roast pork or chicken. You can also use a 24 ounce bag frozen yucca. Yucca is a starchy vegetable and will be a little stickier than mashed potatoes. If the texture of this recipe is too sticky for your taste, whisk in some additional warm milk to thin it out. This entire side dish comes together in just 30 minutes.
