To enhance your tutu, serve with side dishes like: rice, egg, sausage, pork chop, cracklings, and sautéed kale.

The ideal consistency of the tutu should be firm, but not dry. Add a little more broth if the dough gets too hard.

Ingredients

1/2 cup - Da Terrinha toasted cassava flour

4 cups - Cooked beans

a little - Bean broth

60 g - Bacon cut into small cubes

2 cloves - Chopped garlic

1 - Chopped onion

to taste - Chopped green onions

to taste - Salt

to taste - Freshly ground black pepper

Preparation Method

1With a wooden spoon or a masher, completely mash half the beans or blend in a blender with part of the broth until it becomes a thick purée. Reserve.
2In a pan, fry the bacon until golden. Then, add the garlic, onion, and green onions, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
3In the same pan, place the mashed (or blended) beans and the other half left over (the whole grains).
4Season with pepper and a pinch of salt and sauté so the beans absorb the seasonings.
5Add the cassava flour gradually, stirring constantly over low heat, until a moist and slightly pasty mixture is obtained.
6Serve very hot.
