Once everything is well sautéed, add 1.5 cups of cassava flour and continue cooking on medium heat, stirring occasionally until the cassava flour starts to brown, which should take about 5 to 10 minutes until it reaches the desired color.

Finish the farofa by adding 4 boiled eggs, chopped, and mix until incorporated.

For added flavor, you can add 1/2 cup of chopped green onions or your favorite fresh seasoning; stir a bit more and your farofa is ready to serve.
