This was very good! It needed a touch more liquid, and time, but other than that I prepared it as the recipe states and was glad I did! Makes a great meal with Brazilian Chicken (http://www.recipezaar.com/Brazilian-Chicken-With-Coconut-Milk-Sauce-307015), and Brazilian Crock-Pot Beans (http://www.recipezaar.com/brazilian-crockpot-beans-363036)

If you like this, you should try it the way my mother used to make. Just use lots of onions, diced. Stir fry them until they are transparent and follow the rest of the recipe. I used to be the first to dig in, since I love the onions that float to the top! Brings back childhood memories...

I did this in my rice cooker so just threw everything in and used vegie stock. This was nice but the flavour is really mild & I would have liked it a bit more intense, I would probably add a little more garlic and use chicken stock for more flavour if I was to make this again. Made for ZWT 4.
