This is a Portuguese dish made with pork, chicken or other “white meat”…even a firm white fish. Made with wine, vinegar, chili peppers, sugar and a few cloves. Thicken with cornstarch.
Normally I make this with a packet but tonight I was lazy and just threw it together out of what I had. Okay, I know that sounds strange but really, sometimes lazy means toss everything in, let it simmer then taste to see what needs adding. I also add shoyu to it…and serve over rice.
Comfort food for the family. Nom nom nom
Only “scrumptious” will describe it. One of your tastiest looking dishes! Cloves.
You need to toss a couple of whole cloves into the simmer to make this dish. It sounds a bit insane but it adds a depth to the flavour 😀
