Drain the mandioca and let it cool slightly.

In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat and sauté garlic and onion until fragrant.

Mash the cooked mandioca in a bowl and mix in sautéed garlic and onion.

Add cheese, salt, black pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg to the mashed mandioca and mix well.

Form the mixture into small patties or balls.

Dip each patty in beaten eggs, then coat with bread crumbs.

Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat until shimmering.

Fry the patties in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.

Garnish with chopped parsley and a squeeze of lime before serving.
