About 20 years ago I was dating a woman who's mother was from Belem. She made this the first time I went to meet them and I ate SOOOOOO MUCH of it. It is still by far one of my favorite foods. I have not had it since. she told me the dish but as I can't speak Portuguese I quickly forgot. I have been searching for this dish even asking the Brazillians at Jujitsu if they knew what this is or the name. None of them could tell me or really understand what I was asking. I have asked other people from Brazil that I game with online and finally my buddy told me what this is. I cant wait to make this for my wife!!! Thank you for this recipe

This looks really interesting. I bet it's very hearty. One question though. Would you ever use red palm oil (or dende oil) instead of olive oil at the beginning?

[@priscillatayllor]

gk891 Absolutely! I have used dendê oil a couple times for this dish and many others, but I thought for this video was important to use Ingredients that are easy to find! Dendê oil it’s a tricky ingredient to find in the States, unless you live nearby a Brazilian community. But if you have it, but all means use it! Dendê oil is delicious and add an extra warmth and depth to the dish.

@@priscillatayllor Thank you. I do have access to this type of oil (I can not only find it at Brazilian stores but also health food stores and West African stores) and so I hope to use it for this dish. It gives a nice richness to dishes. :)

@@priscillatayllor Oh no, thank you. Brazilian food is very rare where I live. And so I depend on the internet to give me recipes. Thank you for this one! :)

@@priscillatayllor Thank you for the amazing recipe! Have been searching all over for this dish. One of my all time favorites I can remember growing up. Have one question for you. When would you add the dende oil if you decide to use it and about how much? I feel the dende adds that more authentic brazilian flavor to dishes when I use it.
