COMO FAZER ACARAJÉ E VATAPÁ (APERITIVO)

Blend all ingredients for Acarajé (black-eyed peas, garlic, onion, salt, pepper) in a blender until smooth.

Place the mixture in a bowl and beat with a spoon for 5 minutes to make the Acarajé soft and fluffy.

Reserve the mixture.

For the Vatapá, blend dried shrimp, coconut milk, cashew or peanut flour, and garlic in a blender or mixer until well mixed.

Heat the milk and mix in the bread slices, cooking for 1 minute while stirring to form a cream.

Add the Vatapá seasoning mixture, mix well, and add dendê oil, cooking on low heat until thickened while stirring constantly.

Fry the Acarajé in hot dendê oil, placing spoonfuls of the black-eyed pea mixture and frying on both sides.

Serve with Vatapá and sautéed dried shrimp in dendê.
