Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound butter
5 cups finely sliced onions

I'm not a big fan of farofa, but this recipe was actually pretty good. I especially liked the crispy texture.

This farofa recipe was a little too spicy for my taste, but I think I'll try it again with less chili pepper next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my farofa turned out too dry. I'm not sure what went wrong.
