How To Make It

Meats

  1. Build a wood or charcoal fire and pre-heat to medium-high (400 degrees).
  2. Insert the skewers or use the barbecue grill, sausages and chicken on the top row and steak on the bottom row.
  3. Spit-roast until each is cooked to taste: about 35 to 30 minutes for the chicken, and 20 minutes for the sausages.
  4. Rotate the steak every 3 minutes depending on the heat of your fire.
  5. Cook the chicken through (to an internal temperature of 165 degrees). Serve the beef crusty on the outside and medium-rare (130 to 135 degrees) inside.

Molho a campanha - Vinaigrette salsa

  1. Place the vinegar, salt, olive oil, crushed garlic in a non-reactive mixing bowl and whisk until the salt dissolves.
  2. Add the green pepper, tomato, onion, parsley or coriander and stir to mix. Taste for seasoning, adding more salt, and/or vinegar as necessary.

Farofa - Yucca flour

  1. In a frying pan add the butter and the onions, cooking until golden, add the garlic and cook until light brown.
  2. Add the yucca flour and keep mixing until the flour is crispy. Ready to serve.

Garlic Rice

  1. In a pan add the oil and the garlic, cook until light golden.
  2. Add the basmati rice, no need to be washed. Mix for 2 minutes.
  3. Add water to cover the rice 2 centimetres above the rice, let it cook on high heat until the water evaporates.
  4. Turn off the heat and cover with the lid of the pan and let it finish cooking on the heat of the pan, add a drizzle of water if necessary.
