Farofa Recipe

Preparation Instructions

1. 1

   Sauté the Aromatics

   In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

2. 2

   Add Bacon

   Add the chopped cooked bacon to the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

3. 3

   Toast the Cassava Flour

   Gradually add the cassava flour to the skillet, stirring continuously to combine with the onion, garlic, and bacon mixture. Toast the flour for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently until it turns a light golden brown.

4. 4

   Season and Finish

   Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir in the chopped green onions and parsley, if using. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly before serving.
