Dusty's Foodie Adventures

Poderacho Bol "Poder" is the term used for a Goan Bread Baker. I've been experimenting with the different types of bread that are made in Goa so that members of our food group can recreate them being away from home. Poderacho Bol is one such sweet bread that is made on special occasions. Cecilia Tavares who runs the Tavares Bakery in Moira, Goa provided me with the nuts and bolts of this recipe and I tweaked one of my previous sweet bread recipes and applied her input to it. Ginger, Coconut and Cardamom are a match made in Heaven, and they work together in perfect harmony adding wonderful layers of aroma and flavour to the already sweet bread. I hope that you try and like it as much as I did!

Goa Sausages (Choris)

Goa Sausages - Choris Goa Sausages - Perhaps the most loved meat dish in Goa and an absolute favourite in our house, which can be prepared in a number of different ways, e.g Choris pao, Chili fry and Choris Pulao. My wife has even gone as far as to say that this would be the choice for her last meal on Earth. How could I not perfect this recipe based on that feedback?!

Goan Roast Beef

Goan Roast Beef This juicy and delicious roast beef is fantastic served as a side or in sandwiches. Relatively mildly spiced but definitely not lacking in flavour, it can also be enjoyed by children. I know that I enjoyed it while growing up. :)

Goan Beef Chilli Fry

Another old Goan favourite of mine and an almost as popular companion to chilled beer as the ever popular Goa sausage chilli fry.

Aad Maas (Pork Bone Curry)

Aad Maas is another traditional Goan recipe that is slowly being lost to time. This is a classic dish where bones (with some meat) of home slaughtered pigs were marinated in a spicy and tangy base and then slow cooked to perfection. In this modern take of the classic recipe, I've used Pork baby back ribs and slow cooked them in a crock pot for a simple one pot meal. The resulting curry is fiery hot and sour, and ridiculously delicious.
