Where to find ingredients
You can find grated cassava, parmesan cheese, and standard baking supplies at local supermarkets and food markets. As a substitute for cassava, frozen grated yucca is widely available in the frozen aisle of most grocery stores.
Preparation method
- Start by beating the margarine, sugar, and egg yolks until you obtain a smooth cream.
- Add the grated cassava, parmesan cheese, and the pinch of salt, mixing everything very well.
- Whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form separately and fold them gently into the batter to make the cake lighter.
- Pour the mixture into a previously greased pan.
- Place in the oven and bake for about 45 minutes or until it is golden and firm.
Observations
This recipe is perfect for serving alongside a fresh cup of coffee. The secret lies in the harmony between the creaminess of the cassava and the savory hint of parmesan cheese, resulting in a balanced dessert that is remarkably simple to prepare.
