Caldeirada (Layered Vegetables and Fish) Preparation

Caldeirada is a well known Portuguese dish which, I seem to remember, uses a lot of shellfish. Here is a Goan version. Layer a few slices of onion and tomato in a pan. Place 1/2 the fish over onions an tomato. Add another layer of onion/tomato and then another layer of fish. Sprinkle with the garlic and ginger. Scatter over the remaining onion and tomato. Pour the oil, vinegar and about 6-7 tbs water over the fish. add salt is desired. Cook on a low heat until fish is half done. Sprinkle turmeric over fish. Add peppers/chillies. Cook until fish is tender. From archives of rec.food.recipes Date: Tue, 31 Jan 1995 08:20:10 GMT From: trev@wg.icl.co.uk (Trevor Hall)
