Yuca con Mojo Sauce

Prepare the yuca according to package directions. Fresh yuca: Cut into 3-inch pieces; peel with a sharp knife. Place yuca in a large pot with 1 teaspoon salt and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook for 20 minutes or until just tender. Do not overcook or it will get mushy. When done, carefully remove woody, spiny centers by just pulling them off with a fork. Let the yuca sit in the warm water until ready to serve. Meanwhile, make mojo sauce. Heat a small skillet over medium heat, combine the remaining ingredients, and warm on low until you just begin to smell the garlic. Do not let it simmer, or let the garlic color at all. It should just be warm. Drain yuca and transfer to serving dish. Drizzle mojo over top and serve warm. This is a side dish, or can be served for lunch with a salad.
