In a bowl, whisk orange juice, lime juice, garlic, oregano, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Slowly whisk in olive oil to make a quick mojo. Toss hot yuca with half the mojo so it absorbs the sauce. Spoon pork into a bowl and drizzle with remaining mojo. Serve yuca alongside the pork; add more salt, citrus, or pepper to taste.","cookingInstructions":["Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil.
