One Pan Chicken, Rice & Beans
This recipe is inspired by the dish Baioa do Dois (means baioa , a traditional dance of two) from the north eastern regions of Brazil. It’s risotto-like but without all the stirring and expensive ingredients!
Brazil – Salvador
Pan-fried Chicken with Madeira Port Sauce
This is a simple and easy meal using chicken breasts smothered in a rich and tasty Madeira sauce – the true taste of Portugal.
Portugal - Lisbon
Sensational New York Cheesecake
There is only one size for this iconic cheesecake – big! It keeps well but I guarantee it won’t last long. It’s best to make this cheesecake the day before you intend to serve it and make no mistake, it’s well worth the effort.
Serves 10-12

Spicy Bean Fritters
These bean fritters originated in Western Africa, but with the slave trade they spread to the Caribbean and Brazil. Crispy on the outside and creamy in the middle, they are variously known as acarajé and you see them sold everywhere in Salvador. These are my version of them.
Makes 8-10
