Combine the cassava with salt, coconut milk, and lime juice in a bowl.

Mix until well combined and a dough forms.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Shape the mixture into flat discs about 1/2 inch thick.

Place the discs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and firm.

Alternatively, heat a skillet over medium heat and fry each disc for 3-4 minutes per side until golden.

Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving.
