– Parmesan to taste, grated.

PREPARATION:
- Separate the recipe ingredients and utensils.
- Start by cooking the cassava (see preparation).
- Grate the parmesan, if you didn’t buy it already grated.
PREPARATION:
Cassava in Nature – Cooking:
- Wash the peeled cassava well and cut it into small pieces.
- Place in a pressure cooker and cover with water – 3 fingers above the height of the cassava.
- Add the salt.
- Cover the pan and place it over high heat.
- When the pan starts to whistle, reduce the heat to medium and cook for 15-20 minutes (this time may vary, the cassava should be very soft).
- Turn off the heat and remove the pressure.
- Open the pan and check if the cassava is soft, otherwise cook a few more minutes.
Vacuum pre-cooked cassava – Cooking:
- Remove the pre-cooked cassava from the vacuum. Place it in a pan and cover it with water.
- Add the salt, cover the pan and place it on a high heat.
- Once it boils, reduce the heat to medium and cook for about 10 minutes or until the cassava is very soft.
Roasted cooked cassava:
- Drain the cassava and remove the central thread.
- Arrange on a plate and mash with a fork until you obtain a rustic puree.
- Add the grated parmesan and mix well.
- Check the salt, adjust if necessary and season with pepper (optional).
- Transfer to a rectangular or Pyrex baking dish, large enough to be 1cm high.
- Smooth the surface well and cover with cling film where it touches.
- Refrigerate for 60 minutes or until firm.
Roasted cooked cassava:
- Preheat the oven to 250°C.
- Remove the cassava from the refrigerator and invert it onto a cutting board.
- Cut rectangles: first make 3 cm wide strips and then cut again, 4 cm – evaluate the best size based on the shape or dish you used and try to get the best use.
- Dip each piece in the grated parmesan.
- Grease a non-stick baking tray, preferably perforated, with a drizzle of oil.
- Arrange the cassava pieces on the baking tray, without overlapping them.
- Spread a drizzle of oil on each one, forming a zigzag pattern.
- Place in the preheated oven and bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown.
FINALIZATION AND ASSEMBLY:
- Serve hot, so that the shell is crunchy and the inside creamy, as a side dish or snack.
