Caldeirada De Peixe
Recipe type: Main
Caldeirada De Peixe is a Portuguese food recipe for seafood stew.
Ingredients
- ½ lb fish or shellfish, any kind
- ½ tsp salt
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 2 onions, chopped
- 8 tomatoes, peeled and chopped
- 1 green pepper, seeded and chopped
- 4 cloves of garlic, crushed
- 1 pinch nutmeg
- ½ tsp ground allspice
- 3 tsp piri−piri sauce (recipe follows)
- ½ cup dry white wine
- ½ oz cilantro, chopped
- 4 slices of bread with the crusts cut off
- Piri−Piri Sauce:
- 1¼ cups olive oil
- 8 chilli peppers with tops removed
- 1 small piece lemon rind
- 1 bay leaf
Instructions
- Clean the fish and cut into fairly small pieces, removing as many bones as possible. Sprinkle the salt over the fish and leave while you make the following sauce.
- Heat 2 or 3 tbsp of the oil in a saucepan and stir in the onions, tomatoes and pepper. Cook gently until they start to soften, then put in the garlic, nutmeg, allspice and piri−piri sauce.
- Add the wine and a little water. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, then remove from the heat.
- Lightly oil the bottom of a shallow, ovenproof dish (preferably earthenware). Put in a layer of fish followed by a layer of sauce and sprinkle with coriander. Continue with these layers until the ingredients are used up.
- Cover the top of with the bread and sprinkle well with the remaining oil or dot with a little butter.
- Cook in preheated oven at 350F for about 30 minutes or until the fish is tender.
- Serve with boiled or sliced and fried potatoes, bread and a salad to make a substantial main meal.
- Piri-Piri Sauce: Pour the oil into a small, screw−top jar and add the chilli peppers, bay leaf and lemon rind. Screw on the top and shake. Leave to stand in a warm place for at least 24 hours before use. It will keep at room temperature indefinitely.
