Long ago I ate it for the first time in Rotterdam it was prepared by my Cape Verdian Auntie, and it tasted delicious. Years later I saw that this codfish croquette is sold everywhere in Lisbon. Now I prepare this tasty codfish croquette myself. the addiction was then started! Pasteis the bacalhau! Pasteis de Bacalhau. 1 kg Potatoes, cooked and pureed. 500 gr Bacalhau (salted codfish) and then boil. 1 onion cut. 4 garlic fine toes, or garlic puree. 2 whole eggs. Leaf parsley. White pepper....

Portugal is a country full of long white beaches, good surf spots, cozy cities and great food !

Fishsoup made with bacalhau ( Codfish) polenta and pumpkin. Also called sopa de peixe, abobara e farinha di mais. My mother taught me this dish. It is eaten in Cape Verde, but also in Portugal. The rich flavors come mainly from the corn, cod and pumpkin.
