Fried Banana Ice Cream

Image
A cool thing we like doing is frying the Banana Madura and adding ice cream in the middle. Add chocolate syrup and boat loads of ice cream, lastly you are going to add chocolate granulado. This gives the Ice Cream another flavor, it adds more of a sweeter taste. It is something very different than the average banana boat. In this picture shown as an example, all they did was use cinnamon and ice cream which also is a good idea if you want to go in a different direction of the chocolate.

Grilled pineapples

Image
Something we also do during cookouts is grilling our pineapple , sometimes if you want it to be sweet and salt you can add salt but it is really good in my opinion just by grilling it, it has a whole new flavor to the pineapple. the final step if you want you add honey just to give it a little zest to this snack I got this picture as an example from https://www.wikihow.com/Make-Grilled-Pineapple

Tutu Com Linguica

Image
Tutu is a basic plate that everyone eats when they want to change up the daily plate because just eating beans is not enough and gets old . What you are going to need is Beans , a mixer , Linguica , water , Goya Adobo , Garlic, Salt get a medium sized pan so the beans can fit , but before we are going to let the Garlic , Salt and Oil simmer so the beans can have some flavor and add the seasoning of Goya Adobo, later once it is done, let it sit for a good 5 minutes so that the texture starts to get thick , now you are going to beat the beans until you do not see a seed more , it should get a little pasty. now that the beans are ready you can make the Linguica Make the Linguica on a grill or you can fry it , I prefer in this case grilled , let it stay there 20 twenty minutes and let it brown evenly and let it cook so no parts are raw. once the twnety minutes have passed you can now chop up the linguica into tiny peices and let them into the beans and there you have Tutu com Linguica ...

Banana frita

Image
This dish is more of a snack, but it is a lot of work and messy. before you do anything please prepare our hands with oil because the banana has this sticky feature to it that once it touches something it will turn brown and it will take days to come off so please wear gloves, and if not lubricate your hands with oil. To cut the banana you can leave the shell , or remove it . My preference is to remove it so it will not be hard. but once you have decided how you want the banana you can now cut the banana into tiny pieces that they appear to be thin circles like a Ritz cracker but smaller, When that process is done you can add salt , and cook the banana. A good sauce that my family has always used when eating fried banana . is mixing ketchup with mayonnaise , and always pair this up with Guarana.

Today i am going to show you the way we cook collard greens or as we say Couve. ( ko-vay) with this , you can eat it with Rice , Beans , Chicken , Angu / Polenta , many things, its a go to combination for any basic plate in Brazil. to cook the Collard Greens you are going to have to cut them in very thin, but i mean very thin cuts so that they can all cook evenly and that they visually look good, now for preperation you are going to add only salt and oil, nothing more and nothing less. when you add it onto the pan it will have alot of volume but it will slowly decrease within the time it is cooking so if you think it is only a little you are wrong ;). now all that is left to do is eat !

Camarao No Arroz Amarelo

This recipe is something very common in the Brazilian community. It involves yellow rice and shrimp and the flavors it gives is just so good. The ingredients you are going to need are Rice Garlic Oil Fresh shrimp Salt Water  To make the meal you are going to make the shrimp first. you have to clean it well,  if you have your own way of doing that then go ahead, and then you are going to get a large pan once you are done cleaning the shrimp.You are going to add oil and 3 garlic heads and salt , the season is of your liking but i like adding just 3 and a little of salt so it is not to much; that is all that is to the shrimp you allow it for it to be fully cooked . Once that is done set it aside until the rice is ready . For you to make the yellow rice you are going to make the rice you are going to add 3 garlic cloves as well , salt oil and let it cook a little but mix well while it is cooking once you see that the seasoning has mixed in well you can add water ...
