by Trisha Learn This August, we’ve got Brazilian recipes in our boxes to get you in the summer spirit. If you don’t know much about the cuisine of this incredible country – here’s your chance to find out. Plus, you won’t have to go trawling around the supermarket to find all the ingredients, because we’ll get them all sent straight to your door in a HelloFresh box!
Crisp Fillet of Bream with Cassava Chips & Brazilian Salsa
This is basically fish and chips, the Brazilian way! Cassava, also known as yucca or manioc, is hugely popular in Brazil and South America. So, to make sure you get an authentic Brazilian experience in August, we’ve made sure you’ve got some in the box. They’re a lot like potatoes and you can even cook them in a similar way! Fried, roasted, mashed or boiled.
2. Pan Fried Paprika Cod and Fennel Moqueca
Who else thinks of sunshine and samba when they think of Brazil? This week is a chance to really find out about Brazil – and as always we want to know about the food. Cue Brazilian moqueca – but the HelloFresh kind! We’ve added fennel because it works so well!
3. Brazilian Pork and Sausage Feijoada with Black Beans and Coriander
Feijoada is a traditional Brazilian meat stew eaten daily with lots of beans! We’ve made ours with some pretty special pulled pork which has been slow cooked for 14 hours by our lovely friend Steve from Grubworkz in Somerset! And we’ve included some Roaming Roosters sausages! If you’re not going to take part in the Summer Games, the next best thing is putting your feet up and enjoying some delicious Brazilian fodder!
