Ingredients
240 ml milk
240 ml oil
3 whole eggs
720 ml sweet cassava starch
100 g grated cheese
240 ml oil
3 whole eggs
720 ml sweet cassava starch
100 g grated cheese
Where to find ingredients
You can find the sweet cassava starch, often labelled as 'polvilho doce' or 'tapioca starch', in the world food aisle of major supermarkets or in independent ethnic grocery stores throughout Ireland. Use a standard mature cheddar or a mix of parmesan for the best flavour profile.
Preparation method
- Bring the milk to a boil in a saucepan and set aside until it reaches a lukewarm temperature
- Place the eggs, oil, and lukewarm milk into the blender
- Add the sweet cassava starch gradually to the liquid mixture
- Blend all ingredients in the blender until you obtain a smooth and homogeneous batter
- Add the grated cheese to the batter prepared in the blender
- Pulse briefly just to incorporate the cheese into the batter without completely pulverising it
- Distribute the batter into small moulds or individual tart tins previously greased with a little oil
- Place in a preheated oven at 180°C for approximately 30 minutes or until they are well golden brown
Observations
Cheese bread is a classic Brazilian snack that is a must-have on any table. This blender version is ideal for those seeking convenience without compromising on that soft interior texture and golden, crispy crust. The secret lies in thoroughly blending the ingredients to ensure the batter is smooth before baking. Serve it warm to fully enjoy the best flavour and the perfect consistency of the melted cheese.
