Egg Farofa is a flavorful Brazilian dish traditionally made with toasted cassava flour, eggs, onions, and seasonings like garlic, salt, and parsley. Originating from Brazil's culinary heritage, it is often served as a hearty side dish alongside grilled meats, beans, and rice. Cassava flour, a gluten-free and fiber-rich ingredient, forms the base of Farofa and adds a mild nutty flavor while offering essential carbohydrates. Eggs in the recipe provide protein, vitamins B12 and D, and healthy fats. While Egg Farofa can be nutrient-dense, it is typically prepared with oil or butter, which may contribute saturated fats if consumed in excess. To keep it health-conscious, olive oil or other unsaturated fats can be used. The dish is a versatile combination of texture and taste, showcasing Brazil’s rich culinary traditions while allowing for adjustments to fit dietary preferences or restrictions.
