For B I've chosen Brazil. Back in 2010 I made Croquettes De Queijo as my Brazilian food and it was one of the first few recipes I made for my blog. Now I'm going to make 5 more.
Feijão Tropeiro (or Cattleman's Beans) is a delicious looking mix of sausage, eggs, bacon, beans and greens. JD's going to be making this one and I can't wait to try it.
Ingredients:
Lots of ingredients need to be cooked and set aside to make up the dish later. Firstly the eggs are scrambled in the pan with some of the oil. Set them aside for later.
Next chop up the garlic and add it to the pan with 2 tablespoons of oil. Saute until softened.
While the garlic cooks you can chop up the greens.
Add them to the garlic and cook until withered, about 5 minutes. Remove and set aside for later.
Next on the list is the sausage. Slice it up and saute it in the pan until browned. Remove and set aside for later.
Chop up the onion and the bacon, these can be cooked next until the onion is soft and the bacon is browned.
Add the pinto beans and sausage now and cook for a few minutes.
Now add the greens and scrambled eggs. Stir well and cook for a few minutes to heat them up again. Add salt and pepper then the cornmeal, stirring it through thoroughly so it absorbs all the flavours.
Serve with rice.
JD did me proud, this meal looked and tasted amazing! It has everything you want in one dish. Meat, beans, eggs and veg. Very filling and hearty due to the added cornmeal. Tasty too, bacon, garlic and onions all give lovely flavours that add to this dish. I felt worried that it'd be too dry being served with rice since there's no sauce but it was great to eat and not dry at all. A perfect meal to come home to after a hard day at work. Thanks, JD x
