Joana here - Farah Trading Co's official wine and food writer based in Leiria, Portugal! Today's Portuguese recipe is a classic dish in Portugal with African roots.
Piri piri peppers, a staple in Portugal, are originally from Africa. This dish reflects the Portuguese explorations throughout the world centuries ago, discovering new worlds and bringing back inspiration to create new forms of delicious food.
This is a dish that celebrates simplicity at the table, like most Portuguese cuisine. One of the great parts of it is also that it is a dish to share, it's something you can cook and eat together!
This specific recipe comes to us from one of our benchmark Douro Valley Wineries, Quinta do Tedo. Tedo is known for its incredible wine, Port wine and olive oil - but also it's incredible Duro Valley Bistro.
