Pão de Ló - Portuguese Sponge Cake

Pão de Ló - Portuguese Sponge Cake by Sofia Reino

I have always loved this recipe, especially when one is able to cook in in such a way that the middle part is still wet. I have always been afraid of making this recipe as I am not the best at baking. But amazingly enough it came out perfect and I am very proud of myself.

Portuguese Grilled Sardines

Portuguese Grilled Sardines by ruth martins

It's barbecue time! It's barbecue time! Most people go for the traditional sausages, hamburgers, chicken thighs and legs. And if you're lucky, salmon! To me, real barbecues mean the smell of fresh fish and good quality meats. Ultimately, I starting missing Portuguese Sardines. They are the most traditional, most delicious…

Frango à Brás - Chicken with potato sticks

Frango à Brás - Chicken with potato sticks by Sofia Reino

This is a typical Portuguese recipe inspired by another (Bacalhau à Brás) I grew up with. Our family does not care much for chicken breast. We all go for the dark meat. So this is the perfect recipe to finish up that white meat no-one will eat. Another benefit is that the chicken breast of just on chicken will feed 4 to 5 people!

Roasted Bell Peppers Salad - Salada de pimentos assados

Roasted Bell Peppers Salad - Salada de pimentos assados by Sofia Reino

This is a traditional Portuguese salad you will find in most restaurants, especially during the summer. It is very fresh and goes very well with all types of grilled fish. Another idea is to add canned tuna and some hard boiled egg and you have a beautiful summer meal!

Baby Clams á la "Bulhão Pato" by Maria Luisa

A very good and quick appetizer for those who like the taste of sea. Cook it for an informal meal as it is better eaten with your fingers. Choose a cooled dry white wine Enjoy

Açorda à Alentejana- "Poor Mans' Soup"

Açorda à Alentejana- "Poor Mans' Soup" by Samantha Suan

This is a traditional Portuguese dish from the southern Alentejo region. It is rare to find it any where else. Actually it is a soup that was passed down from my grandmother, Avo, and she would tell me that this simple dish is got it's name from poor families that couldn't afford much so they often prepared this as a main meal.
