'My recipe for a joyful Juneteenth includes the following: learning something about the era that the holiday springs from, gathering with people I love, attending or hosting a cookout, picnic or party, and having a red drink,' says chef Klancy Miller.
Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add 1 Tbsp. salt. Peel and cut yuca into 3” pieces if using fresh, and add to the boiling water. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, until the cassava is easy to pierce with a knife. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
Cut each cassava piece in half and discard the tough, starchy vein in the middle. Return it to the pot and add half of the tomato, garlic, thyme, and scallion, along with 2 Tbsp. water. Cover and cook on medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the cassava is completely tender, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
Heat a little oil in a saucepan on medium heat and sauté the remaining tomato, garlic, thyme, and scallion and the Scotch bonnet chile a few minutes, until fragrant. Add the wine and let the mixture reduce by half. Add the shrimp and sauté for 3 to 5 minutes, until cooked and pink. Add the butter to the pan, and take it off the heat, sprinkle with fresh lime juice.
Coarsely mash the cooked cassava mixture. Stir in the cooked shrimp and sauce. Taste for salt and pepper, adjust the seasoning to taste, and let cool for 10 minutes. In the meantime, heat 2” of oil in a Dutch oven or deep, heavy skillet over medium heat. Set up a breading station with cassava flour in a plate, oil for replenishing the pan, a sheet pan lined with parchment paper, and another one lined with paper towels.
