This recipe first appeared in 'Off the Menu' in Culinaire's November 2020 issue courtesy of the folks at Calgary's Safari Grill.

We’ve received many emails asking if we can get the recipe for Safari Grill’s Masala Mogo. You’ve told us that they are “like the best fries EVER!” and “sooo tasty and delicious when they’re fresh and hot.”

We agree, they’re our favourites too, so many thanks to Safari Grill for sharing the recipe!

Mogo is a root vegetable that we also know as cassava or yuca. It’s starchy and fibrous, and therefore is usually boiled first before being fried. It can be difficult to peel, but is easily available prepared and peeled, as the inset photograph.
