SHRIMP STEW


[check the recipe here]

This classic dish from the state of Bahia, in North-east Brazil, is one of the most important ones of the Afro-Brazilian tradition of cooking. It is made with fundamental native ingredients: manioc, coconut milk, dendê (palm oil) and fresh shrimps.
This is my Mom’s favourite - she likes to cook it on Christmas Eve.
