How to make Shrimp Bobó:

The first step of the shrimp bobó recipe is to peel, cut and cook the cassava in a pan with water and a little salt until it becomes soft. Remove from heat, drain and let cool.

In a large skillet, place the olive oil, the peeled and chopped garlic and cook. When they are golden, add the shrimp, a little salt, black pepper and let it cook.

In another pan, saute the onion in butter until golden, and let it cool a little. Transfer this stir-fry to a blender and blend together with the cassava, coconut milk, palm oil and half of the coriander, until smooth.

Pour the cream from a blender into the skillet with the shrimp to get your shrimp bobo. Stir, season with salt, add the remaining coriander and the seedless chili pepper, chopped into very small pieces.

Let it cook until it boils and turn it off. Serve your shrimp bobó still warm with white rice. Enjoy your food!
