Cassava flour ("farinha") toasted in butter or oil, often with bacon, onion, and sometimes egg mixed in — an essential accompaniment on the Brazilian table. It's a classic side for feijoada and churrasco (barbecue), where its dry, crumbly texture and nutty toastiness provide a welcome contrast to rich dishes. Households vary widely in what they mix in.
Cut the bacon into strips; mince the onion.
Heat butter in a pan and fry the bacon until crisp.
Add the onion and sauté until translucent.
Add the cassava flour (or breadcrumbs) and toast, stirring to prevent burning, until fragrant.
If desired, add beaten egg and stir-fry until crumbly.
Season with salt to finish.
