Description

That’s my favorite dish. The traditional way to do it takes a couple of days and a lot more ingredients, but my way to do it is a lot faster, cheaper and definitly more delicious. Here in Brazil, we like to gather close friends and family around a big table to eat like there’s no tomorrow! So, so good!

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds, 3-⅓ ounces, weight Black Beans
  • 7 ounces, weight Salted Meat
  • 7 ounces, weight Smoked Pork Chops
  • 7 ounces, weight Salted Pork
  • 7 ounces, weight Portuguese Sausage
  • 3 cups Chopped Onions
  • 3 cups Chopped Tomatoes
  • 6 cloves Garlic
  • Salt And Pepper
  • Olive Oil

Preparation

The first thing you have to do is to put all of the meat (the porks, salted meat and sausage) in water to remove the extra salt in them. That needs to be done about 6 hours before you start to cook. Another thing you will have to do is put the beans in water too, so they can become soft and this way, they will cook better and faster.

After the soaking process, change the water of the meats and bring to a boil for 30 minutes. Drain all the water and cut into medium pieces. Drain all the water from the beans, too. In a big pan, put enough olive oil to stir fry the meats. Put the onions, garlic and tomatoes together with the meats and the beans. Season with salt and pepper and cover everything with water. Cook for about 3 hours and if necessary, add more water.

We eat with this collard greens cooked with olive oil and garlic, white rice, farofa and oranges.

Mazdee – since you have to soak the meats to remove the salt, I would think you could use regular, unsalted meat (presumably beef). Perhaps the recipe owner can comment.

I was also curious what “farofa” was?

I am not sure what “salted meats” are. Otherwise, the dish sounds delicious. Could I use bacon for the salted pork? I want to try this.
