Ok, how can I explain farofa (Pha ro Pha). In Brazil we usually eat farofa with Beans, Feijoada, BBQ, there are 100’s of recipes and hundreds of uses.

Its really tasty, it just gives a crunchy texture to dishes. we just sprinkle some over the top.

Farofa
Serves 4
The main Ingredient is toasted Manioc Flour, it has many names Cassava flour, Gari Flour and probably more I'm not aware of. Its not hard to find, even some big supermarkets have it now a days, but most of my corner shops also have it. As I said its mainly used to give dishes to dishes, but it can also be used to thicken up stews its a very versatile ingredient. Trust me, try it.
