🇵🇹 Cozido à Portuguesa

👨‍🍳 Preparation

  1. Boil the Meats:
    • In one large pot, boil beef and chicken with salted water.
    • In another pot, boil pork cuts (ribs, forefoot, ears) with salt.
  2. Cook the Vegetables & Sausages:
    • Use half the beef broth to cook sausages and vegetables.
    • Add sausages first (prick them with a fork), then potatoes, turnips, and carrots.
    • Add cabbage last to avoid overcooking.
  3. Slice & Serve:
    • Cut meats into pieces and slice sausages.
    • Arrange everything on a large platter and serve hot.
  4. Pairing:
    • Enjoy with crusty bread and a full-bodied Portuguese red wine.

This dish is traditionally served in stages: first the broth as soup, then the meats and vegetables. It’s perfect for family gatherings and Sunday meals.
