Ingredients:

• 1 large onion
• 1 strand of olive oil
• 2 tablespoons of butter
• 1 cup seasoned cassava flour

Steps

1. Cut the onion into very thin slices (in the shape of a "half moon", as in the image), so you can brown it without burning too fast.

2. Then heat a pan with a generous drizzle of oil and add the butter. Tip: It is important to also use olive oil in this crispy farofa recipe because it prevents the butter from burning while it heats up.

3. Once the fat is hot, lower the heat and add the onion . While the onion is frying, stir constantly.

4. Fry the onion slowly , stirring constantly, until it has a caramelized appearance, as shown in the image. This is the ideal spot for the onion to be. Tip: It is important to use the fire very low and do not stop stirring, because if the onion burns, it can become bitter.

5. Add the seasoned cassava flour and continue stirring. Let the cassava flour sauté together with the caramelized onion for a few minutes, so your farofa will be crunchier!
