Ingredients
1 cup milk
1 cup olive oil
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon salt
100g grated Parmesan cheese
3 cups sweet cassava starch (polvilho doce)
1 cup olive oil
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon salt
100g grated Parmesan cheese
3 cups sweet cassava starch (polvilho doce)
Where to find ingredients
You can find milk, eggs, butter, and olive oil in any local supermarket. For the 'polvilho doce' (sweet cassava starch), check the international foods section or specialized health food stores, as it is a specific Brazilian ingredient. If unavailable, tapioca starch is the closest substitute, though the texture may vary slightly.
Preparation method
- Place the milk, olive oil, eggs, salt, grated cheese, and sweet cassava starch into your blender jug.
- Blend all the ingredients until you reach a smooth and homogeneous batter.
- Prepare small muffin or dariole moulds by greasing them well with butter or margarine.
- Pour the mixture into the moulds, filling them only halfway to allow for rising.
- Place the moulds into a preheated oven.
- Bake until the cheese bites are puffed and have a deep golden colour.
Observations
This is the ultimate solution for preparing a tasty snack with minimal effort. You will get light, airy buns with a soft interior and an irresistible golden crust.
