Remove from heat, add the egg, half the salt, mix well, and set aside

In a large frying pan, heat the remaining olive oil and garlic and fry until it starts to brown

Add the ground beef and oregano and cook, stirring constantly, for 10 minutes or until the meat is browned and the liquid has evaporated

Mix in the scallion and remaining salt

Grease a loaf pan with butter, divide the cassava mixture into three parts, and use one part to line the bottom of the pan

Place half the ground beef on top, followed by half the Minas cheese

Repeat this process, ending with the cassava
