Filé Oswaldo Aranha offers a rich and savory flavor profile, blending the tenderness of perfectly grilled beef with the pungent aroma of garlic and the crispy textures of the sides.
The primary flavor comes from the tender and juicy grilled beef tenderloin (filé mignon). The copious amounts of crispy fried garlic, cooked in olive oil, infuse the beef with a strong, aromatic, and slightly spicy garlic flavor. The side dishes contribute various textural and flavor contrasts: the salty and smoky bacon farofa (toasted cassava flour with bacon and eggs) provides a grainy texture and savory notes; the homemade potato chips add crispiness and saltiness; the white rice offers a neutral base; and the vinaigrette (often a simple tomato and onion salad with vinegar) provides a refreshing acidity to balance the richness of the other components.

Garlic Perfection
The garlic is crucial. Fry it slowly in plenty of olive oil until golden brown and crispy, but be careful not to burn it, as burnt garlic will become bitter. The oil infused with garlic flavor is also delicious drizzled over the beef and rice.
Beef Quality Matters
Use high-quality beef tenderloin for the best results. The beef should be cooked to your preferred level of doneness but is usually served medium-rare to medium.
Homemade Chips
While store-bought chips can be used, homemade potato chips are significantly better. Slice the potatoes thinly and fry them until golden brown and crispy. Season generously with salt.
Farofa Variation
The farofa can be customized to your liking. Some variations include adding onions, peppers, or other ingredients. The bacon provides a salty, smoky flavor that complements the other ingredients.
