Best Toasted Manioc Flour With Eggs And Scallions Farofa De Ovo E Cebolinha Recipes
FAROFA - TOASTED MANICOC FLOUR
Farofa is toasted manioc (yuca) flour that is served widely throughout Brazil. The dish is made by toasting the flour in a greased skillet until golden brown and crisp and then stirring in parsley, eggs and olives. Farofa is an essential component of Brazil's national dish: Feijoada -Meat and Bean Stew, where it is either sprinkled on top or served alongside. Its crunchy texture is the prefect contrast to the soft beans and meat.

FAROFA
Manioc flour can be found in Brazilian stores. It resembles a light bread crumb, but do not confuse it with tapioca flour or starch. Once toasted in fat - here, bacon, but other kinds may be used - the manioc flour can serve as a crisp topping to the feijoada, or served alongside to soak up the juices.

Steps:
- Mash the garlic and a few pinches of salt with the side of your knife until pasty. Place bacon in large skillet over medium heat, and let it cook, stirring, for 5 minutes, or until fully rendered and lightly browned. Add a splash of vegetable oil if there isn't enough fat to generously coat the pan.
- Turn heat down to medium-low, and cook garlic until very aromatic. Add manioc flour, and cook, stirring and shaking the pan continuously, until it's a shade toastier and a little crunchy, 6 to 8 minutes. Turn off heat, and stir in butter. Add salt to taste. Let guests sprinkle or pile it onto their plates, to their taste.
