Pork, Alentejo Style - Carne De Porco à Alentejana

  • rhianna 13 years ago
    I made gourmetana's "Pork, Alentejo Style - Carne De Porco à Alentejana" which was so delicious, although a tiny bit different than the one I usually make.

    I quadrupled the sauce because I like to have plenty of it to soak up with crusty Euro bread. We also had a meal using the cubed fried potatoes instead of bread. (Either way is typical in Portugal.) I used hot Hungarian paprika, as my other option was Spanish smoked paprika which would've changed the flavor.

    Served this in typical Portuguese fashion: with bread, simple salad & Vinho Verde ~ delicious. I served Portuguese appetizers of Euro bread & butter, olives & rissois de camarão (shrimp rissoles). Dessert was a European nut torte with cafezinho (demitasses of coffee). This meal had some of my favorite dishes ~ it was thoroughly enjoyed by all, particularly by me & the guest of honor, both of us having lived in lovely Portugal.
