PIRAO (MANIOC POLENTA)

Pirao (Manioc polenta) image

Provided by Nancy Harmon Jenkins

Time 15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups fish broth
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 1/2 cups manioc flour

Steps:

Bring the fish broth to a rapid boil, and stir in a little salt and pepper. Add the tomato paste, and stir to incorporate thoroughly. Sprinkle in the manioc flour, a little at a time, stirring vigorously and continuously until all the flour has been incorporated and the mixture has the consistency of soft ice cream. Serve immediately; like polenta, pirao gets stiffer the longer it sits.

MOQUECA COM PIRAO (BRAZILIAN SHRIMP STEW)

Moqueca Com Pirao (Brazilian Shrimp Stew) image

I translated this recipe, sent to me upon request by my brother Gildo Juarez who lives in Rio (Brazil). Unfortunately I am unable to translate his witticism... It is served with white rice and "pirao" (recipe follows). You can use fish instead of shrimp, by the way. CAUTION: Dende oil gives this dish its special flavor, BUT too much of it may cause "piriri," a.k.a. Montezuma's Revenge! (E-mail me if you have questions.)

Categories Brazilian

Time 55m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

2 lbs large shrimp (reserve shells)
2 onions, sliced
3 tomatoes, sliced
4 garlic cloves, chopped
4 tablespoons dende oil (or olive oil if you can't find it)
coconut milk, 100ml
1/8 teaspoon paprika (* see note at the end)
cilantro and chives, chopped

Steps:

Saute onions, garlic and tomatoes in oil, in a clay pan if possible (http://static.panoramio.com/photos/original/15240632.jpg). When onions are golden-about 15 minutes-add deveined and cleaned shrimp, and wait until it gets "red"-about 15 more minutes. About 5 minutes after you added the shrimp, add coconut milk and paprika. Before serving, mix in cilantro and chives.
Pirao: 700ml water; 1 onion, chopped; 2 garlic cloves, mashed with salt; pepper & salt to taste; reserved shrimp shells; dash of colorau *; 1 cup manioc flour. In a pan with lid, boil all the ingredients for about 15 minutes. Drain. Put liquid back in pan; when it boils turn to a simmer. SLOWLY add manioc flour, stirring constantly (as for polenta). It is ready when it starts thickening. (It doesn't harden, but turns kinda gooey.).
* We actually use "colorau" (made mainly from "urucum" seeds); instead of paprika, a better substitute in my view is annatto seeds (http://www.overmundo.com.br/overblog/nosso-colorau-o-urucum). Saute annatto seeds in the dende oil, being VERY careful not to bun them; remove seeds and use the oil.
