Learn how to make lobozó farofa for Christmas dinner – 12/11/2023 – Food

Farofas are a tradition at Christmas dinner in Brazil, whether to accompany the main dishes or to stuff the birds. Lobozó, a country-inspired stir-fry, is a great and tasty substitute.

The recipe, proposed by chef Gustavo Rodrigues, from the Lobozó restaurant, in São Paulo, uses corn flour and yields up to four portions.

Ingredients

• 100 g diced bacon, skin removed

• 100 g fresh sausage, casings removed

• 50 g roasted peanuts, shelled

• 300 g flaked corn flour

• Salt to taste

• 75 ml chicken broth (or water)

• chopped parsley to finish

Way of doing

• In a frying pan, brown the bacon and set aside, discarding the excess fat that has melted.

• In the same frying pan, brown the fresh sausage mixture in pieces until completely cooked and drain the excess fat.

• Add the fried bacon, add the peanuts, corn flour and salt.

• Hydrate with the chicken broth, mix well, finish with the parsley and serve (or use to stuff the roast chicken).
