Ooops totally forgot to update post with my Brazilian Night from few (like 3) weeks ago. Now I need to try remember what did I make that night..... Cartoon Dude, Exotic Asian, Dr Rats, Black Belt Dude all came to try out my Brazilian cooking.
As with many Caribbean and South American recipes, Black Beans play a fundamental role in many dishes. I remember what a pain it was trying to find Black Beans in Sydney. No, they're no available in your local Coles. Grrrr.... But after some searching in some delis and fruit and veg stores. Finally managed to get a can. (Dry ones take too long too cook!)
So the menu for the night, after being inspired by watching the Planet Food series the other day and they did a segment on Brazil -Feijoada (Black Bean Stew), Chicken with Coconut, Fish Stew, a Pomegranate Salad and a Beets Salsa. Yes there was waaaay too much food that night!
The most interesting dish of the night was the Feijoada
