From Peri Peri Chicken to Bacalhau (salted cod), Portuguese cuisine has become a popular choice in Australia in recent years. The cuisine is heavily influenced by Mediterranean dishes and flavours, but is also renowned for its seafood. Common herbs and spices include garlic, black pepper, saffron, cinnamon and vanilla.

As well as the savoury dishes, sweets are an important part of Portuguese cuisine. These include pastries, in particular egg tarts, rice pudding and sponge cakes. At the centre of Portuguese cuisine is cooking over hot coals, after all, passion and fire are at the heart of Portuguese food!

Popular dishes

Chouriço

Portugal has a string of traditional sausages that all make delicious party snacks (and make perfect sense to have delivered through Menulog). Chouriço is most popular (a bit like the Spanish Chorizo) made with pork, paprika and sometimes red wine. Linguiça is smoked, cured pork sausage with garlic and paprika. The Alheira, is garlic-based and made from any meat except pork (Duck, Chicken, Veal, Quail or Rabbit) and has a fascinating history. In 1497, Jewish people, forced to convert to Catholicism or be expelled, still practised their faith by ‘converting’ their pork sausages to fowl – so fooling the Inquisition into thinking they were no longer keeping kosher. Nowadays the only thing being grilled are the Alheiras – then served with veggies or french fries (then delivered on a Menulog bike).

Caldo Verde

A common Portuguese soup is Caldo Verde, which is made with potato, shredded collard greens, and chunks of Chouriço (Spicy Sausage) or Ham Hock. Sopa da Pedra (aka Portuguese Stone Soup) is an incredibly tasty soup made of spicy sausages, potatoes, carrots, celery, onion in a chicken broth. It is also the stuff of legend. Stone Soup is a folk story about hungry strangers convincing townspeople to each share a small amount of food to create a meal everyone enjoys – it’s now a moral about the value of sharing. (And sharing delicious takeaway is what the Menulog app is all about.)
