About Farofa de ovo
Farofa de Ovo is a traditional Brazilian side dish made from toasted cassava flour (farofa) mixed with scrambled eggs and seasoned with salt, pepper, and often onion or garlic. This dish is part of Brazil's rich culinary tradition, commonly enjoyed alongside meats, beans, or stews for added texture and flavor. Cassava flour, the base ingredient, is gluten-free and provides carbohydrates, but it is low in protein and nutrients compared to whole grains. Eggs contribute essential nutrients such as protein, healthy fats, and vitamins like B12 and D. While Farofa de Ovo offers a comforting, flavorful addition to meals, its nutritional profile can be calorie-dense due to frying and added oils or butter. Moderation is key to enjoying its rich taste while maintaining a balanced diet.
