    Never made or ate anything Brazilian.
    I was pleased to see that both my pantry and fridge can accommodate your recipe.
    I'm however not a great fan of hot pepper sauces nor cilantro...hence I'll probably use a pinchette of cayenne pepper and some Italian parsley.
    Hope you don't mind ;0)
    Thank you for your inspiration and for sharing your recipe.
