With a rich coastline, abundant in fresh fish, Portugal can give you the pleasure of your life with the simple sardine and other typical dishes. Take a look! Arroz de Polvo: This dish is made of octopus pieces cooked in tomatoes and onions and it's served in a white rice bed. You can also try the octopus rice with red wine (Arroz de Polvo com Vinho Tinto). Bacalhau à Braz: Codfish and french fries in thin strips combined with eggs and garnished with parsley, in an onion sauce. Very, very simple! Truly, truly delicious! Bacalhau com Natas: Another codfish recipe, between the hundred portuguese possibilities to cook this fish. The codfish is fried with onions and baked in the oven with a cream white sauce (béchamel sauce) and diced potatoes. It tastes even better when served with a cold salad! Caldeirada: The fish-stew made in Portugal is very unique. This dish takes several fish species, like frog-fish, ray, sea-bream, grey mullet, corvina, etc., tomatoes, pepper and parsley, but there might be found small diferences from one region to another. Grilled sardines: Definitely one the most sought after recipes. You cannot come to Portugal and not try the grilled sardines! Fished from the Atlantic ocean every morning, the sardine is one of the best fresh fish and is eaten from North to South. With a simple slice of bread or with boiled potatoes garnished with parsley, sardines are an outstanding meal any time. But if you’re looking for the most tasty and fresh sardines, you should eat them on the months with no "r" in them. What does it taste like? Come on and try it, you won't regret it!!
